Jørgen Vik

Tromsø After two seasons as head coach for Skjervøy, Vik did not sign a new contract with the club and instead started working for Tromsø, this time in a new role as the assistant manager to Gaute Helstrup.

Ahead of Tromsø’s 2024 season, Vik was promoted to head coach, after Helstrup left the club. At the time of his appointment, it was reported that Vik didn’t have the right pro license to coach a club in the Eliteserien, and that he would need someone else in his coaching team to fulfil this. Only weeks after his appointment, Tromsø announced Gard Holme as the new co-head coach, to fulfil the licensing paperwork, making Vik and Holme equal on paper. The season started abysmally for the coaching duo, with five straight losses in the league, while also exiting the Norwegian Cup against Vålerenga. Through the summer, the club picked up more points, and at the end of the season, barely avoided relegation.

Before the start of the next season, Tromsø announced that they had parted way with co-head coach Holme, and that Vik would remain as the sole head coach for the upcoming season. This was possible as Vik was announced as one of several Norwegian coaches picked for the UEFA Pro Licence course starting in 2025.
