About Viktor

Viktor Ólason

Viktor has worked in Icelandic business since the late 1980s. He started in collections at Olís, ran marketing and sales at Íslenskar getraunir, and sold advertising at Norðurljós. At Ölgerðin Egill Skallagrímsson he was general manager of marketing, working with brands like Pepsi, Tuborg, Gatorade and Diageo.
