Playing for several modest teams in Sweden and Norway, he also played first-tier football for Strømsgodset until they were relegated in 1991. After one year in Sandefjord he travelled north to Lofoten in 1995.[2][3] Leading Lofoten as a player-manager to an unprecedented spell in the 1999 1. divisjon, he was sacked post-promotion for lacking formal qualifications.[4]
In 2000 he moved to Fauske/Sprint as manager.[5] In 2003 he coached Steigen and ahead of the 2007 season he took over Grand Bodø's women's team.[6] However, two days before the start of 2007 Toppserien he resigned, needing to prioritize his civic job when the coaching job took too much of his working week.[7]
In 2017 he was declared an honorary member of FK Lofoten.[8] In Strømsgodset too he is regarded as a club legend.[9]
