Recruitment

20 hires in 18 months

OBOS, founded in 1929, is one of the leading residential developers in the Nordic region. With the vision to fulfill people’s housing dreams, they are developing future communities through efficient construction and strategic land acquisitions. In early 2019, Oddwork got the opportunity to fulfill even more dreams together with OBOS – this time, we’re talking about career dreams!

The mission 

Opening the door for more talents 

Tomas Turnéus took on the title of regional manager at OBOS in the spring of 2021, just as the company was in an exciting expansion phase. After a previous employer branding collaboration in 2019, we were delighted to continue our journey together – this time to find more talented people who wanted to be a part of OBOS’s warm culture. 

I find the employees at Oddwork delightful, competent, and personal. They are available, give feedback, and don’t shy away from difficult questions. We have a lot of fun together.”

— TOMAS TURNÈUS, REGIONAL MANAGER AT OBOS

What we did 

20 hires in 18 months 

Since our collaboration started, we have together filled a total of 20 different positions at OBOS and their three brands, ranging from project managers and project developers to salespeople. In our recruitment processes, we strongly focused on employer branding and spreading the internal pride that exists within the walls of OBOS all the way to the candidates. From job ads to onboarding, we made sure to capture OBOS’s unique tone and soul in the best way to match the company with the right personality. 

”It has been very exciting to collaborate with OBOS and represent their well-known brand. They are always cooperative and open to what we need to do together to achieve results and reach our goals.”
— Nathalie Björkman, Employer Branding Advisor

Thank you, OBOS, for our collaboration so far! We look forward to recruiting more key players who are ready to be a part of something bigger and fulfill people’s housing dreams – from the detailed plan to the housewarming party!
