Turn challenges into sustainable solutions

In COWI, we work to move Denmark in the direction of green transition, sustainability, climate adaptation and innovative urban development. Therefore, we are looking for a colleague to help us implement sustainability, green transition, and circular economy in practice. We are about 170 colleagues working alongside our customers on some of Denmark’s most significant projects within environmental conditions.

We are looking for a Specialist or Project Manager, to join us on our journey to further the green transition of Denmark.

Your key activities will be:

• Preparation of Environmental assessments and environmental approvals/permits in the industrial area

• Sewer connection permits (tilslutningstilladelser)
• Discharge and percolation (nedsivning) of industrial wastewater

We imagine that you have at least a few years of experience working with one or more of the areas mentioned above and you thrive in a role where you have direct contact with your clients.

On top of that, you will have:

• The drive to support our clients towards a greener future by identifying and recommending improvements within environmental aspects and processes.

It is an advantage if you have knowledge of Danish and/or EU legislation in the environmental field.
