🚀 About WasteHero

WasteHero is building the future of municipal waste management. Our cloud-native SaaS platform helps cities and private operators optimize routes, automate billing, and deliver greener, more efficient communities.

We’re now looking for a Business & Growth Intern to join our HQ team and play a key role in shaping how we scale. You’ll be part of a small, high-energy group working on recruitment, business operations, and process improvement — all contributing directly to building our next business unit.

  • Help build internal processes for a new business unit.

  • Conduct research on talent markets, competitors, and best practices.

  • Coordinate between our HQ in Aarhus and international delivery hubs.

  • Contribute to leadership meetings, documentation, and project planning.


✅ You Bring

• Currently studying or recently graduated within business, IT, communications, or related field. • Strong communication and organizational skills. • Comfortable taking initiative and working independently. • Fluent in English (Danish is a plus). • Interest in recruitment, operations, or scaling startups.


💡 What You’ll Gain

  • Real insight into how a SaaS scaleup expands internationally.

  • Hands-on experience across recruitment, operations, and business growth.

  • Direct mentorship from senior leaders at HQ.

  • Freedom to take ownership and make a visible impact.

  • Flexible hours and an informal, high-trust environment.
