Perspective
Early career
Fagermo was born in Bærum, and grew up in Raufoss, Norway. He started his coaching career in lower leagues with his first job as head coach being at Skarphedin in 1995. He took over Pors Grenland in 2002 and moved on to Notodden in 2004. Fagermo became head coach of second tier club Strømsgodset ahead of the 2006 season.[2][3] Strømsgodset promoted to the top flight in Fagermo's first season in charge and finished in eleventh position in their first season back in the top flight in 2007.
Odd
Ahead of the 2008 season, he became head coach at Odd Grenland. Under Fagermo's management, Odd finished in third position in the 2014 Tippeligaen. This was Odd's first top flight medal since the 1956–57 season. Odd also finished in bronze medal position in 2016. In 2019, his last season at the club, Odd finished in fourth position dropping from third place in the final round of the season.[4] Since Fagermo's appointment as head coach of Odd on 17 December 2007, he coached the team in twelve consecutive seasons.
Vålerenga
On 31 January 2020, Fagermo was announced as head coach of Vålerenga, replacing Ronny Deila.[5]
After two-and-a-half seasons at Vålerenga, Fagermo was fired after a loss to his former club Strømsgodset.[6]
Lillestrøm
In September 2024 Fagermo signed on as head coach for Lillestrøm after the club sacked David Nielsen after only a month at the club.[7] The contract lasted only until the end of the year, and after the club was relegated, it was not renewed.[8]
Fagermo would later go on to say that he regretted taking the job, citing that there wasn't enough time to change what he needed to keep the club in the top flight.[9]
Return to Strømsgodset
On 10 June 2025 Fagermo was announced as the new head coach for Strømsgodset, signing a two-and-a-half year contract. The contract would see Fagermo return to the club after eighteen years.[10]
