Have you worked in customer service at a Nordic Business Forum event? Would you be interested in taking more responsibility and growing as a leader? Apply for the NBF 2027 Leadership Program as a Customer Service Team Leader for [NBF 2027](https://www.nbforum.com/nbf2027/).

Our NBF 2027 Leadership Program combines leadership training with hands-on work experience. It runs from January to October 2027 and has two key parts:

**1\. Training program (January–May 2027)**  
In spring, you’ll take part in a leadership training program built for you and your fellow team leaders. You’ll learn about team-building and different aspects of leading. Later in the spring, you’ll get your team leader pair and your own customer service area, and you’ll start planning it before the summer break. You’ll also take part in a small spring recruitment of students.

**2\. Practical work experience (August–September 2027)**  
In August, you’ll put into practice what you’ve learned. You’ll recruit, train, and lead your own team of students, and support them to do their best work at NBF 2027. Most team leaders work in pairs. You’re also responsible for your customer service area, from planning to execution. You'll work closely with the NBF production team in your team leader role.

**From 10 August to 23 September, this is a full-time job**: long days, some evenings, and some weekends. We expect you to clear your calendar of other commitments so that you can commit fully during those six weeks.

**Wrapping up (September–October 2027)**  
After the event, we’ll reflect on what we learned together, hold personal 1-1 discussions, and celebrate at the feedback session and thank-you party.

You’ll earn 15 ECTS credits for the whole program and get paid for the August–September work period.
