Student for conferences

Do you want the opportunity to use your administrative, coordinating and relational skills? Are you looking for a student job where you can make use of your overview and planning abilities, where you have the opportunity to be involved from start to finish of a task, and where you can largely influence the result through your own efforts? Then you are the person we are looking for in Komponent's conference unit.

About the job

In the conference unit we administer about 35 conferences per year for KL – Local Government Denmark. We handle the practical aspects, while the professional office handles content. There is a coordinator and a student attached to each conference, and this is where we need you.

As a student you are attached to the various conferences, where you will be responsible for the conference app, evaluation, collection of material and contact with partners.

To succeed in the job, it is needed that you can work during daytime hours, just as you several times a year must be able to travel with on some of the conferences, where we are away for one or two overnight stays.

We offer thorough training, sparring and professional development with skilled colleagues as well as an open culture where we succeed together. We work, among other things, with programs such as Office, SurveyXact and Conference Manager.

We are looking for you who

• Are currently pursuing a higher education – and preferably have at least two years left of your studies
• Have a sense for process management, and can assist in planning and realization of larger conferences
• Are ready to have about 10-15 travel days annually, where you participate in the execution of conferences
• Have strong skills and routine in using IT, including the Office suite
• Are structured, independent and ambitious
• Have good communication skills and a desire to engage in dialogue with many people – both in writing and verbally
• Are curious and ask questions about tasks, surroundings and processes
• Wish to work in an open office environment, where presence is important for us to succeed together
• Are flexible, proactive and engaged
• Are willing to perform routine tasks when necessary

What do our former student assistant say?

As a student at Komponent I quickly became part of a small team, and quickly took on responsibility for my own specialized areas while at the same time being part of many shared tasks. As a student in the conference unit I greatly valued being allowed to participate in the execution of large municipal-political conferences/summits, where I could see the results of the work I had done. I have valued being part of a small team with an ambitious and cozy environment. I have felt that we as students are valued, and that our work is considered just as important.

Salary and employment terms

We expect our new student to start in January 2027, when travel activity is also expected.

The working hours are on average 15 hours per week, distributed over the year. Some weeks are busier, others quieter. Komponent is closed for holidays in weeks 28, 29 and 30 as well as between Christmas and New Year.

We expect you to be flexible during peak workloads. In return we are flexible in exam and vacation periods.

Your workplace will be Komponent's office in Copenhagen, located centrally on Islands Brygge in KL-Huset. We place emphasis on presence because it is important for our task execution, but offer home working when feasible and makes sense.

Salary according to the collective agreement.
