Are you motivated by climate action, diversity & inclusion, health & wellbeing and interested in coordinating the implementation of our Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) program? Then we have the right student job for you.

Our SDG program is linked to our overall decarbonization strategy. It is a collection of the sustainability targets for People, Planet and Profit. The program offers benchmarks for sustainability efforts and offers transparency and accountability for our actions.

The SDG program takes those far-reaching efforts and puts them in a framework. Whether it’s developing the next generation of engines that will decarbonize global shipping, or ensuring our employees are empowered, motivated and able, the SDGs have become an integrated part of our business.

MAN Energy Solutions in Denmark is a large company and coordinating our SDG efforts requires large efforts. We need you to support us in these purposeful activities.

You will play an important role in:
As Student SDG Coordinator, you will:

• Aid in developing future programs
• Bring new ways of thinking about sustainability and the SDGs – we need fresh perspectives to identify our blind spots
• Coordinate SDG activities across our locations in Copenhagen, Frederikshavn and Holeby
• Continuous coordination and reporting of SDG target progress
• Work in close collaboration with the communications department on SDG content for our various internal and external channels
• Maintain an SDG intranet page on our SharePoint platform
• Drive implementation of selected SDG activities

We imagine that you:

• Are good at driving things (implementing something, asking someone to do something, getting a status on implementation, etc.) while maintaining overview and understand how the right sequence of small steps can lead to major organizational change
• Can speak and write proper Danish, and preferably English as well. The day to day spoken language is Danish, but you will also work together with international colleagues in English
• Are interested in learning how to set up and maintain intranet pages on SharePoint if you have not worked with it before. Someone will help you get started, of course
• Are proactive and used to reaching out to people you may not have spoken with before
• Are perhaps an active member of an NGO or have an activistic approach to sustainability at large
• Understand that the above bullet points are for guidance only – if you do not meet all requirements, but have a passion for coordinating, writing, implementing, and are motivated by SDGs and want to help drive our sustainability agenda to create change, we want to you apply anyway

Welcome to the SDG Team
You will be supporting a cross-functional SDG team of 4 members coming from QHSE (quality, health, safety, environment), climate, strategy, and HR. We are working out of different locations, most of us from Copenhagen. You are welcome to have your main place of work at either Copenhagen, Frederikshavn, or Holeby, as suits you best. Your main supervisor will be Frederikke Munk Sørensen, Principal Climate Manager, but you will be part of the coordination group mentioned above and support all of us.

We have an implementation focus, this is, we have an inventory of activities we need to implement in 2024, and we need your help to do it. We think we are progressive and have made a good plan for how to operationalize sustainability, but we would like you to tell us and support us in what can be improved.

We also have a strong student worker community offering various activities.
