Regional government operating secondary education, transport, and public health across Norway's largest inland county
Innlandet fylkeskommune is a 1,000+ person regional authority managing education, transport infrastructure, health services, and economic development across a 52,590 km² region spanning 46 municipalities and 371,000 residents. The tech stack is predominantly Windows/Azure/Microsoft 365 with on-premises virtualization (Citrix, VMware), reflecting typical government IT maturity; hiring velocity is accelerating in education and healthcare roles, with active projects spanning EPJ system implementation, road data management (NVDB), and secondary school coordination—all areas where system integration and data accuracy remain documented pain points.
