Interview with Isabelle Sundin
Isabelle is 34 years old and lives in Drammen, and she works as a Marketing & Communication Coordinator at the Pon Energy Rental depot in Drammen.
Isabelle grew up in Sweden and moved to Norway when she was 21 years old to work with sales and customer service. After 6 years as a Sales & Customer Advisor she decided that she wanted to work with marketing and started as a Sales & Marketing Coordinator at a building tool company. In 2022 she decided that it was time for something new and applied for the job at Pon Energy Rental. She joined the company in June and was immediately included in a rebranding project since the company was changing name after a change in ownership.
“I enjoy my job at Pon Energy Rental a lot, there is never a boring day. The tasks are varied, and the working environment is very good. We have a lot of fun together at work. To be able to take part in a big rebranding project was very fun and rewarding, and I’m very happy being able to manage my own workday.”
Outside work she is studying part time, online to achieve a bachelor’s degree in marketing management. She started the studies in August 2022 and will be finished in June 2028. “Being able to apply the knowledge that I gain from my studies directly in my job is very useful and fun, I’m very happy that I decided to study alongside work since you can apply the knowledge right away.”

Definitely the colleagues and the culture, we have a lot of fun together and it is easy to ask for help or input when you need it. I also enjoy the diversity in the work tasks, they are very varied and it never gets boring.
Besides studying, I spend time in the stables where I take care of the horses and ride dressage. I also travel a lot to see my boyfriend who lives 2,5 hours away from Drammen.
The tempo is high at times, which can be challenging but fun at the same time. You get the opportunity to be involved in new projects and if you want to you can develop your skills a lot. Since the company’s business has a big range with projects in many different market segments you learn a lot about different industries as well which is very fun and interesting. I’m most proud of the rebranding journey, and all the tasks that has been completed.
I enjoy my job at Pon Energy Rental a lot, there is never a boring day.
