The Royal Danish Theatre seeks a tender consultant

Do you want to help create the procurement and purchasing framework for one of Denmark's most unique cultural institutions? Are you motivated by translating rules and law into concrete solutions and advising colleagues in an organization where no day is the same?

At the Royal Danish Theatre you will have the opportunity to work with many different purchases and tenders, which take into account both the artistic interests and the theatre's daily operations. If so, the Royal Danish Theatre is looking for a procurement/tender consultant who can help us with purchasing and tenders.

The Royal Theatre buys goods and services across a wide range from costumes, scenography and props for productions to communications, marketing as well as goods for the theatre's own cafe and bars in the food & beverage area, musical instruments and IT equipment and services.

You primarily have a passion for public procurement. As a procurement/tender consultant you will be responsible for guiding our colleagues through tender cases, working with governance and controlling of our contract portfolio.

We are not a completely normal workplace and the tasks are never the same. You will become an important part of a small team where your task is primarily to work with the tendering aspects in relation to purchasing and tenders.

Your tasks will include, among others

• Provide legal advice in the procurement and purchasing area, including advising on procurement rules and conditions.
• Make legal assessments of procurement-law issues, e.g., preparing procurement-legal notes.
• Execution of tenders, including conducting market dialogues and studies, and preparing tender documents
• Help colleagues with the purchasing process, including guidance on the governmental procurement cascade, and assist with market dialogue during bid solicitation.
• Contract owner for SKI agreements

We imagine that you

• Have relevant higher education, e.g., cand.jur., cand.merc.jur. or cand.scient.pol.
• Have experience with public procurement and tenders, including the governmental procurement cascade
• Can express yourself clearly and concisely in writing and orally and adapt your communication to the recipient.
• Are good at building relationships and meeting people with a collaborative and inclusive approach. Have a good overview and are used to prioritizing tasks and ensuring progress in processes and task execution
• Thrive in working with many collaboration interfaces

It is advantageous if you

• Have experience in project management.
• Have experience purchasing in a dynamic procurement system on SKI and using Ethics and udbud.dk
• Have experience with EU tenders and the light regime
• Have worked with contract management

What do we offer?

The position is located in the Tendering and Purchasing Department, which is in the Finance and IT office. We are in the process of building our department so we can support and assist our staff around the theatre when tenders need to be drawn up, contracts concluded and SKI agreements handled, as well as many other tasks.

You will have your office at Kongens Nytorv and become part of a workplace that certainly does not exist elsewhere in the country. You will be part of a vibrant and innovative universe, where the physical premises are, of course, in place.

Salary and terms of employment

Employment and remuneration are in accordance with qualifications and the current collective agreement for academics in the state.

Application deadline is 31 October 2026.

Expected start date is 1 January 2027
