We imagine you bring some years of experience from administrative roles where you have been used to coordinating and working on several agendas and initiatives simultaneously. It is important you have a good understanding of the interdependencies in a company with many different departments.

As a person, you are energised by helping others, and you understand the need to be service-oriented and collaborative. With your self-driven and structured approach, you can prioritise your own time, getting things done in a logical order, on time, while still planning ahead.

You are comfortable working closely with senior stakeholders, and not afraid of voicing your own opinions yet demonstrate a high level of integrity as you will spar with the Leadership Team on sensitive matters and be handling confidential information.

Finally, you have good analytical and communication skills, both verbally and in writing. You are skilled using Microsoft Office, particularly PowerPoint, Excel, and Word. Further, you embrace and encourage more digital ways of collaborating between colleagues. Finally, you are proficient in written and spoken Danish and English.
