Conditions

• Employment type: Permanent, seasonal position. A probationary period applies.

• Start date: By agreement.

Application deadline: December 31, 2025. Recruitment is ongoing; this may mean that the process ends before the application deadline.

We strive to offer a non-discriminatory and inclusive recruitment process. We look forward to receiving your application, where we request your CV, but you do not need to send a personal letter. Instead, to learn a bit more about you, we would like you to answer a number of questions that you will find if you click through to the application. If you proceed after the application, you may receive a link to a psychological test. The tests we use are based on current research and serve as support in the assessment.

Our recruitment processes consist of several steps, often more than one interview. We believe it is extremely important to give ourselves the time required to get a good picture of each other - you should choose us and we should choose you! Occasionally, there are many applicants for a position, and this may extend the process for that reason. However, you can be assured that we do everything we can to keep you updated and provide feedback along the way.
