Project Consultant for Banking & Finance

Would you like to be part of a highly specialized team specializing in complex financing transactions, which is currently rapidly developing at Bruun & Hjejle? Are you structured, action-oriented and good at creating an overview when the tempo is high? Do you want to work with some of the country’s most skilled lawyers and at the same time help develop the way we work?

We are looking for an ambitious project consultant for our Banking and Finance department, which advises financial sponsors, companies, banks, funds and other lenders on complex financing transactions. You will be a central part of the team and will be particularly attached to partner Anne Cathrine (AC) Ingerslev.

You will have a versatile role with independent responsibility and the opportunity to shape both daily task execution and the development of workflows.

The position

As a project consultant you will be an important partner and sparring partner for both partner Anne Cathrine (AC) Ingerslev and the rest of the team. You will help ensure that cases, processes and projects are driven forward efficiently, that the many involved parties, internally as well as externally, have an overview of tasks and, not least, deadlines, and that the partners can focus on legal advice and client relationships.

You will work in a professionally ambitious environment where there are often many balls in the air, and where the ability to prioritize, take initiative and follow up makes a difference.

Your tasks will include

• Case and project coordination: Create an overview of ongoing transactions, coordinate tasks across the team and with clients, counterparties and other advisors, maintain checklists and schedules, follow up on deadlines and ensure progress.
• Partner support: Be the partner’s right-hand in daily work, including managing meeting planning and preparation, prioritizing incoming inquiries and coordinating activities with the team, so you are always ahead of upcoming needs.
• Project management: Drive smaller projects in the department, including planning, task allocation and follow-up.
• Finance and administration: Coordinate case creation, conflict checks and KYC processes, time recording, invoicing and budget monitoring, as well as other administrative processes in collaboration with relevant colleagues.
• AI and digital development: Support the team’s use of AI tools, including developing and maintaining AI agents and identifying opportunities for automation.
• Ad hoc tasks: Solve a wide range of ad hoc tasks for the partner and the team, e.g., travel arrangements, preparation of client meetings, pitches and presentations as well as coordination of internal and external events.
• Optimization of workflows: Take initiative for more efficient processes and contribute to ensuring we make the best use of resources and technological possibilities.
• Document handling: Assist with drafting, proofreading and formatting of case-related documents as well as preparing closing bibles and ensuring proper journaling.
• Knowledge work: Assist with ongoing updating and knowledge sharing in the team, including preparing and maintaining standards.

About you

We are looking for someone who is engaged and ambitious. You thrive with responsibility, have a natural organizational talent and are motivated by getting things done. A legal background or experience is not a requirement. The most important is that you are curious, quick to learn, service-minded and want to become part of a specialized and professional environment.

We imagine that you

• Have an educational background in corporate law, administration, business, communications or similar.
• Have an interest in financing, including acquisition financing, alternative debt financing, general corporate financing, fund financing, bond issuances, infrastructure financing as well as green, sustainable and other ESG-related financing.
• Are detail-oriented, structured and quality-conscious and motivated by organizing, coordinating and maintaining an overview when things are moving fast.
• Are proactive, independent and can follow tasks through to the end.
• Are service-minded, solution-oriented and motivated by making others better at their work.
• Proficient in Danish and English at a high level.
• Have basic knowledge of AI tools and an interest in implementing and developing AI resources in the team.

We offer

We are large enough to attract the big complex cases, but small enough that everyone knows everyone in the team. This means that in our daily work we have an informal tone and support each other both professionally and socially. We have great respect for the fact that as individuals we are different, and that a career is not only about getting better, specializing and the next step on the career ladder. For us, it is also about creating a work life that harmonizes with everything else life has to offer.

In addition, we prioritize social cohesion and support a healthy lifestyle through a range of social activities and events across the business.
