Would you like to help ensure effective, green and transparent procurement that creates value for the organization and society?

We are looking for an engaged and structured student assistant for a two-year student job. You will become part of our procurement and tendering team, where we work professionally and purposefully with competitive tendering and contract management across goods, services and IT.

With the new student assistant, Procurement will consist of 1 manager, 2 tender consultants, 1 contract manager, 1 controller, 1 e-commerce employee and 1 student assistant.

There will be ample opportunity to put your academic competencies into practice and gain a lot of valuable experience.

You will be part of a small team where tasks are varied and where we help each other across. Therefore you will have the opportunity to work with everything from data and analyses to contract management, communication, administrative tasks and development projects. No day is exactly the same, and you will gain a broad insight into the municipal procurement function.

Your tasks

The tasks will vary and be adapted to both your competencies and the current needs in the Procurement Office. You will among other things work with:

• Administrative tasks in connection with procurement, tendering and contract management
• Collection, processing and presentation of data for analyses, follow-up and reporting
• Assist in planning and conducting tender requests and tenders
• Communication with internal users, suppliers and partners
• Contribute to development and optimization of workflows and administrative tools
• Practical and coordinating tasks in the daily operation of the Procurement Office
• Ad hoc tasks across the team’s areas of responsibility

Your profile

• You are actively enrolled in a relevant higher education program (e.g. MSc in Economics/Management, Master of Public Administration, a bachelor's or master's degree, law or similar) and expect to be a student during the employment period
• You have a structured and analytical approach to tasks
• You have a flair for numbers, data and IT – preferably Excel and Office 365
• You can work independently and take responsibility for your tasks
• You have good communication skills – both written and spoken
• You have a good ability to collaborate broadly and build good relationships with both internal and external parties
• You are curious about the use of AI and see great potential in it

We offer

• An exciting and meaningful job with a high degree of independence
• A professionally strong team with focus on knowledge sharing and collaboration
• Flexible working arrangements and a good balance between work and leisure
• A workplace close to public transport – bus and train

Employment terms

The position is a two-year student job of approximately 10 hours per week (by agreement) with start as soon as possible and preferably 1 December 2026. The employment runs for two years from the start date. Salary and terms follow the applicable collective agreement. You will have a fixed workplace at Vejen Town Hall.
