Are you a strong communicator with an interest in developing your skills in digital communication and storytelling? Join the Hempel Foundation and help tell powerful stories that make a difference.

About the Role

As our new Student Assistant in Communications, you’ll support the development of engaging, high-quality content that showcases the Hempel Foundation’s work. You’ll be involved in everything from social media and digital monitoring to research and storytelling - working closely with your future colleagues in the communications department.

Key Working Areas

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who brings curiosity, courage, and creative energy to the table. Someone who’s excited to be part of shaping the future of the Foundation’s communications – from fresh ideas and bold concepts to thoughtful execution.

You’re not afraid to share wild ideas (or challenge your own), and you know when to let go of a “darling” in favor of what creates the most value.

You’ll be part of a collaborative and focused team, working with clear priorities and experienced guidance.

We expect that you are:

  • Enrolled in a Master’s programme (or in the final year of a Bachelor’s) in Communications, Journalism, Media Studies, or a related field
  • Structured, analytical, and proactive
  • A strong writer and editor in English, (Danish is a plus, not a requirement)
  • Familiar with tools such as Canva, Meta Business Suite, and Google Analytics (a plus, not a requirement)

What We Offer

We are a strategic and collaborative communications team, combining a clear direction with the energy to explore new formats, platforms, and partnerships.

This is a great opportunity to join a team that values professionalism, creativity, and shared development – and where you’ll both learn from us and contribute with your own ideas.

  • A meaningful student job with global impact
  • An inspiring workplace with experienced colleagues in communications to learn from
  • Flexible working hours around your study schedule
  • Insight into strategic communications in an international, philanthropic organization, working both nationally and globally
  • Great lunch and office in the center of Copenhagen
