We are looking for a communications assistant to join our Communications team and support our business by ensuring the quality and impact of our internal and external communications deliverables.  

This role is intended for students currently enrolled at university with at least one year remaining before graduation. It is a part-time role of 12-15 hours per week and is in Copenhagen, together with the rest of our Communications team. We will review all applications on an ongoing basis and will fill the position as soon as we have found the right candidate, at which point we will close for further applications.

Working with us, you will get to bring your strengths into play from day one, and through collaboration with colleagues from different areas of the business, you will get to build your professional and personal competencies further. 

As Communications Assistant at Copenhagen Economics, you will join our Communications team, which is a part of the wider Business Support Team (BST). The BST is a group of approximately 20 individuals from functional units such as Communications, Finance, Office Management, and Human Resources. The team is responsible for delivering high-quality strategic and practical support across the company. BST members are located across our four offices and collaborate to develop and maintain a positive company culture. 

You will be a part of a vibrant, international team that values trust, teamwork, and professionalism. We strive for an open, supportive environment that makes each day both rewarding and challenging. With our informal culture and strong team spirit, we aim to foster a workplace where you can genuinely thrive and feel free to be yourself, regardless of who you are or where you come from. We enjoy spending time with one another, coming together for various events during the year.
