  • Draft and send outreach emails or follow-ups to buyers, distributors, and collaborators.

  • Help organize and maintain our CRM database (contact lists, outreach tracking, status updates).

  • Support sample coordination, delivery logistics, and follow-up communication.

  • Analyze partner feedback and sales data to refine outreach and identify growth trends.

  • Assist in creating simple business materials (sales decks, retailer kits, follow-up templates).


Who You Are

  • You’re a student in business, marketing, communications, or a related field.

  • Organized, proactive, and confident reaching out to new people.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills (English required, Danish a plus).

  • Curious about startups, retail, and the food industry.

  • Able to work independently with clear direction.


Why Join Us

  • Get hands-on experience in B2B sales, partnerships, and go-to-market strategy.

  • Work directly with the founder and gain insight into how an early-stage food startup scales.

  • Build a tangible network of industry contacts within the Copenhagen food scene.

  • Flexible hours (approx. 8–12 hours/week) with hybrid or remote work options.

Working at
Sunny Life Co.

Sunny Life is a Copenhagen-based startup shaking up the spread game with sunflower seed butters in flavors you won’t find anywhere else. Most spreads are boring, processed, or nut-only — we’re here to make them fun, nutritious, and inclusive without losing sight of ethics or taste. Everything is made in small batches, with a sustainable, allergen-friendly base and a Scandinavian twist. As a small but growing team, you’ll work closely with the founder and get a behind-the-scenes look at how a business is built from the ground up. It’s hands-on, fast-moving, and a chance to make a real impact (plus free seed butter 🌻).
