Student Assistant - Innovation & Strategy Execution

Do you want to be a valued part of the critical infrastructure that serves communities across Europe and beyond? Are you looking

for a position in which you can set direction for how we execute on our strategy and help shape our future company? If so, then

you could be the newest addition to our CTO office as Student Assistant in our Innovation & Strategy Execution team.

We are currently looking for a dedicated and structured Student Assistant to join our Innovation & Strategy Execution team. The

position is based at our headquarters in Copenhagen and the position requires 15-20 hours a week.

Our team sits at the heart of Technology & Innovation (T&I), where we drive the quarterly forecasting process (QFP) and manage the

portfolio of innovation projects across the organisation. In this role, you'll help facilitate and support the QFP — making sure

the right input is gathered at the right time and materials are produced and ready when leadership needs them.

You'll be working closely with the Innovation & Strategy Execution team, spanning our Agile Chapter, PMO CoE, Tech M&A and

Innovation & Partnerships. There's a huge opportunity to learn from the different areas, giving you a broad and practical

foundation in how we execute on strategy and how innovation is planned, governed, and delivered at scale.

• Participate in meetings and workshops, preparing presentations and presenting findings together with (and not excluding to)

tracking overviews, status materials, reporting for leadership etc.

We think the strongest teams are built on diversity and inclusivity. Contrasting opinions, varied skills and strong characters

bring out the best in us all. With this in mind, we think that you are structured, proactive, and take ownership of your work with

a strong sense of responsibility.

• Currently enrolled in a master's degree program at a university/business school in Denmark, ideally within business, finance,

communication, economics or engineering, and can work from our location in Nordhavn, Copenhagen

• Fluent in English, both verbally and written, as this is our company language and used across all internal communication and

workshops

• Structured by nature, dedicated, independent and comfortable working with multiple stakeholders, tasks, and deadlines in

parallel

• Dedicated to developing your skills in project management and strategy execution, and you feel confident presenting and taking

ownership of your work

Prior experience from a student job, internship, or project work involving planning, coordination, or facilitation is a plus, but

not a requirement.

At DFDS, we promote a great workplace with a diverse and inclusive community, and a healthy work/life balance, with flexible work

arrangements. Our newly built headquarters in Copenhagen is a unique, modern workplace. Here, we enjoy our own game room, fitness

facilities, cantina and café, and a rooftop terrace with a beautiful ocean view, all just 5 minutes from the nearest train & metro

station.

You’ll get to join our vibrant student network, connecting with peers across our departments from diverse programs and

universities. The student network hosts a range of social and professional events throughout the year, offering opportunities to

grow and have fun together.

If you think your personality, skills, experience and desire match this role, we'd love to hear from you. Apply as soon as

possible as we're keen to meet potential candidates.
