In the 2007 Norwegian Cup, Olsen scored four goals. In 2007, Bodø/Glimt promoted to the top division. The following season, he scored 10 goals in the league and had 14 assists. Olsen transferred to Rosenborg before the 2009 season.[1] He joined Viking in August 2011.[3]

On 23 January 2014 he returned to Bodø/Glimt on a three-year contract.[4] Olsen signed with Sogndal on 15 August 2018, after failing to play for the first team.[5]
