Lundi supports compliant employment in Norway for specialist senior hires — particularly Oslo tech and energy/offshore. For broader Nordic talent depth, Sweden typically wins; for cost-driven scaling, Estonia or Poland win significantly.
Norway offers high-quality senior talent in tech (Oslo's startup scene — Schibsted, Cognite, Vivaldi alumni), energy and offshore (Equinor, Aker), and finance. Norwegian krone (NOK) is the local currency; the country is in EEA but not the EU. Norway is one of the world's higher-cost talent markets — employer social contributions run ~14% above gross, but base salaries are among Europe's highest. Strong fit for specialist senior hires and Norwegian market presence. For broader Nordic senior talent Lundi typically recommends Sweden (deeper pool, comparable quality at lower cost); for cost-driven scaling, Estonia or Poland win significantly. For companies building teams of 10+ specifically in Norway.
What it costs to employ someone through Lundi.
Lundi's cost is the all-in cost of the employee — gross salary plus statutory employer contributions plus customary benefits — and a Lundi management fee on top. The management fee depends on team size and scope: smaller teams pay a higher per-head rate, teams of 20+ get materially better unit economics, and Build–Operate–Transfer engagements are structured separately.
The alternative paths look like: setting up your own local entity (meaningful months of legal and accounting work, plus ongoing in-country HR, payroll, and compliance infrastructure), engaging a local recruitment agency on contingency (typically a percentage of first-year compensation, paid once, with no ongoing employment relationship), or hiring as a contractor (lower upfront cost, real misclassification risk in most jurisdictions). Lundi is faster than entity setup, structurally different from contingency recruitment, and lower-risk than contractor arrangements.

In Norway, the notice period for resignations is one month’s notice.
When it comes to dismissals, an employee’s notice period depends on seniority. The breakdown is as follows:
Lundi works with companies building teams of 10 or more across business, technical, and operational functions . Not for one-off hires or individual placements.
EOR platforms employ individuals for you. Lundi recruits, employs, and operates concentrated teams — including day-to-day management, HR, and an optional path to your own entity. It's the operating model for companies that have outgrown the EOR ceiling.
