Work

The working language at UNN is Norwegian. Your Norwegian proficiency must be sufficiently high to ensure reliability in patient care when communicating in Norwegian with our patients, families and colleagues. We do accept Danish and Swedish as academic languages.

For positions that require a certification as health care personnel according to the Health Personnel Act, a Norwegian authorization/temporary license must be obtained prior to the employment and commencement. 

More information on how to apply for authorization  (Norwegian Directorate of Health or Helsedirektoratet). 

​

Before working at UNN, residence permit or registration certificate must be obtained. Nordic citizens have automatic residency in the Nordic countries.

Within the EU / EEA you need only obtain a registration certificate.

Outside the EU / EEA you must obtain a residence permit.

Unfortunately we do not accept open applications, and do not usually consider these.

You need to apply on vacant positions through our recruitment portal - Webcruiter.

Most of our vacancies are only announced in Norwegian as ability to understand Norwegian is a requirement for most of our positions.
