We have various events and projects to accelerate and promote sustainable solutions such as the SDG Tech Awards, the Green Impact Week, Green Impact Assessment, the Sustainable Innovation Agents programme, and much more.


Your responsibilities:

  • Conceptualize and work with themes for Green Impact Week (energy, water, etc.)

  • Identify thematic corporate/public/PPP partnerships for the Green Impact Week

  • Strategize how to land such partners

  • Identify relevant funds and strategize how to approach such funds from a project-based context

  • Write fund applications 


Qualifications:

  • Strong verbal and written communication skills in both Danish and English

  • Attention to detail

  • Strong analytical capabilities, both qualitative and quantitative

  • Experience in fundraising and/or project and partnership management preferred

  • Bachelor's or Master's in Business, Politics, Organizational studies, Project Management (or similar)


What we offer:

  • Lots of responsibility and constructive experience

  • The chance to take ownership and direction of your own work

  • Work with a purpose for an international NGO making real sustainable change

  • A flexible working schedule

  • A casual and fun working environment with other international students

  • The opportunity to use the internship as part of your study program

  • Access to Sustainary’s events and wider network of partners (network network network)


We are looking for someone that can start as soon as possible, but we are flexible. We review applications on a rolling basis. Please note, this is an unpaid position. We are looking forward to receiving your application!
