Skullerud worked as a coach in Ullern IF Fotball and Bærum SK before taking over Norway's U-18 and U-19 teams.

He led Norway to the UEFA European Under-21 Championship in Israel. Norway was one of eight participating teams and finished second in their round with five points after a draw against the host nation Israel, a win against England and a draw with Italy. In the knockout phase, they faced eventual winners Spain, losing 3-0.

Skullerud is also a UEFA Prolis which is the highest education of coaches in Norway. His first season with Molde was an instant success, taking both the league title and the Norwegian cup, as well as setting a new point record in the league. Skullerud was sacked on 6 August 2015.
