Growth & Tender Analyst (Internship)

🌍 Join WasteHero as our Growth & Tender Analyst 

WasteHero is transforming how cities and private haulers manage waste — smarter, greener, and more scalable. Our SaaS platform helps organizations digitize operations, improve sustainability, and deliver more efficient public services.

As part of our continued expansion in Europe, we’re looking for ambitious students to join our Bid & Commercial Team as Growth & Tender Analysts. You’ll help us identify new opportunities, validate market potential, and support the preparation of winning tenders that drive WasteHero’s growth.


🎯 About the Role

As a Growth & Tender Analyst intern, you’ll play a key role in driving WasteHero’s growth pipeline. Your focus will be on lead generation, tender discovery, and market research within the public and private sector.

The internship starts in January 2026 and follows the university semester until summer 2026. We’re looking for students who can commit for the full semester and are eager to take on real commercial responsibility alongside their studies.

You’ll learn how public and private tenders work in practice — from early market dialogues to formal tendering — and how technology companies like WasteHero compete and win. You’ll collaborate with our commercial and bid teams to ensure that each identified opportunity aligns with our strategic goals and market priorities.

This is an exciting opportunity to gain hands-on experience in business development, market intelligence and tender management, while contributing directly to real commercial outcomes.

  • Conduct market and competitor research to inform bid strategy and positioning

  • Collaborate with the bid team to prepare supporting material for proposals and qualifications

  • Maintain and update internal lead databases and tender tracking tools

  • Assist with performance reporting on tender outcomes, win/loss tracking, and pipeline health

  • Contribute to content improvement in the bid library, ensuring up-to-date and compelling materials


🧩 What We’re Looking For

  • You’re a student in business, law, economics, political science, communication or a related field

  • Curious, analytical, and proactive with a structured working style

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills in English (Danish or another EU language is a plus)

  • Interested in learning how to use online tender platforms, analyzing and structuring information

  • Detail-oriented and organized, with an interest in public sector innovation and sustainability

  • Confident using Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Slides) or Microsoft equivalents

  • A team player eager to learn and contribute to a fast-paced, international environment


đź’ˇ Why WasteHero?

  • Gain hands-on experience in public and private tenders, commercial operations, and lead generation

  • Learn how technology and sustainability come together in real-world application

  • Work closely with experienced bid managers and senior leadership

  • Flexible hours to fit your academic schedule

  • Collaborative, mission-driven culture focused on growth and impact

  • "The coolest thing about being an intern at WasteHero, is the pace and responsibility I get." (quote: current intern)
