Salary Unpaid

🚀 Join WasteHero as our Bid Manager Assistant (Internship)

WasteHero is transforming how cities manage waste—smarter, greener, and more scalable. As we scale across Europe, we’re looking for an organized, ambitious Bid Manager Assistant to help us manage high-value tenders, coordinate project teams, and make sure we never miss a deadline.


This role is perfect if you:

  • Enjoy project management and seeing complex tasks through to completion

  • Like working with both big-picture goals and the small details

  • Are great at tracking timelines, organizing people, and juggling multiple priorities

  • Want to learn how real deals get closed in a high-growth SaaS company

  • Thrive in a fast-paced environment with senior support and mentoring


About the Role

As Bid Manager Assistant, you’ll play a crucial role in our Business Development team. You’ll help coordinate the end-to-end tender process: tracking requirements, validating deliverables, supporting review cycles, and making sure everything runs on time. You’ll collaborate closely with experienced bid managers, contract owners, and founders—gaining hands-on project management skills that transfer anywhere.


Responsibilities

  • Track deadlines and requirements for ongoing bids and tenders

  • Coordinate input from the senior team, contract owners, and other stakeholders

  • Organize project plans, validation sessions, reviews, and submission processes

  • Help ensure proposal materials are complete, compliant, and submitted on time

  • Support documentation and improvement of our bid management processes

  • Use digital tools to streamline collaboration and status tracking

  • Take on ad hoc support or special projects as needed


What We’re Looking For

  • You’re a student in Aarhus (any field; business, engineering, or project management a plus)

  • Highly organized, with a knack for planning and follow-through

  • Detail-oriented and reliable—deadlines motivate you, not scare you

  • Proactive communicator (English required, Danish a plus)

  • Comfortable with digital tools (Excel, Google Workspace, Notion, project management apps)

  • Eager to learn from senior professionals in a growing tech company

  • Interested in SaaS, business development, and the world of public/private tenders


Why WasteHero?

  • Learn project and bid management from senior experts and founders

  • Real responsibility on high-impact deals and projects

  • Flexible hours to fit your studies

  • Open, inclusive, and ambitious team environment

  • Opportunities for personal growth, skill-building, and internal advancement

  • Experience that sets you apart for future roles in business, tech, or consulting


How to Apply

Send us a short message: Why you, why WasteHero, and why now? Attach your CV, and (optionally) share examples of projects, events, or assignments where you managed timelines, teams, or deliverables—even informally.
