Administrative caseworker with an interest in employment law

Our case handler has decided to retire after many years, and we are therefore seeking an engaged and proactive colleague who wishes to become part of Arbejdsmarkedets Hus. As a case handler you will be a central figure in our small secretariat of four employees, where your primary task will be the preparation of court cases in the Labour Court. In addition, you will, as part of the secretariat, also handle various ad hoc secretarial tasks that belong to the Labour Court and the Mediation Institution.

Become a central figure in the handling of cases in the Labour Court In your role as case handler, your daily work will be characterized by a range of exciting and highly diverse tasks. You will have the primary responsibility for handling the lawsuits filed by the Danish Confederation of Trade Unions against companies across the country, from the moment the petition is filed in the Labour Court to the case being settled with a decision or a settlement.

You will, in close cooperation with the Labour Court's secretariat head, be responsible for, among other things, the service of process documents and notices, the organization of court hearings, the preparation of court registers, and the dispatch of decisions in the ESDH system F2. You will also be responsible for telephone guidance and other communication with the business owners who have been brought before the Labour Court.

In addition, we also expect you to take initiative and be flexible with regard to the other secretariat tasks, where we as a small team help each other when needed.

A unique workplace with a close collaborative environment in the heart of Copenhagen As part of our team you will have the opportunity to work in a charming building centrally located on Sankt Annæ Plads in Copenhagen. As an extra bonus you will hear the Royal Life Guards Band playing lunch outside your window every day at 12 o'clock.

In our small team you will work independently but also have close contact with your colleagues. We value a good working environment and open communication, and we are looking for a person who can handle all the different tasks with resilience, an overview, and a good sense of humor.

We offer flexible working conditions and working hours. We value a good work-life balance and give you the freedom to adapt your working day as long as it is in accordance with your tasks and the needs of the team.
