Create the solutions that will enable a better tomorrow
In COWI, we want to help shape a sustainable and livable world. This is the vision we strive to realise every single day through the projects we engage in together with our customers, partners and colleagues across the world. We offer you the opportunity to join our mission, develop your skills and work with smart and engaged people in a friendly and exciting environment.

We are currently looking for a market communication specialist who will have an integral part in delivering market communication initiatives in our priority market sectors. You will also be the focal point for ensuring quality and customer relevance in our market communication across the COWI Group. You will become part of our global Communication and Branding team of 25 skilled specialists.

As part of your day-to-day tasks, you will:

• Develop, implement and follow up on market communication plans and initiatives, including conferences, campaigns and customer events.
• Support the business by developing and delivering go-to-market plans, pitch presentations and key messages.
• Produce, maintain and distribute customer communication material, including articles, videos and social media content.
• Monitor, evaluate and report on market development, competitive landscape and our own communication performance.
• Act as a value-adding adviser to the business by sharing best practices, scoping market communication initiatives and ensuring alignment with our strategic market priorities.
• Collaborate closely with many different stakeholders from across the business, including senior management, the market organization and your colleagues from the Group Communication and Branding team.

Your skills. Our team. Together, we design the future
To succeed in this position, it is essential that you are a person with high cooperative skills and solid business understanding. You are an energetic doer who takes initiative and has an attitude towards challenges and breaking new ground. You have proven project management experience, and you can translate concepts into concrete actions. Furthermore, we expect you to have political awareness and the ability to communicate convincingly to ensure buy-in from various stakeholders.

Furthermore, you should:

• Hold a degree in communication, marketing, political science or another relevant field of study.
• Have more than three years of experience with B2B marketing, either from an international knowledge company or agency. Experience with the building, transport or energy industry is an advantage.
• Demonstrate a proven history of content production – written and visual.
• Have experience with data handling and analysis (including market, customer and competitor analysis).
• Be able to decode complex content, identify key messaging and translate it into compelling communication that adds value to our customers.
• Be fluent English, both in writing and orally.

A place to work and so much more
We work together with our customers to help shape a sustainable and livable world. We do so by applying our knowledge and curiosity – and sometimes even our courage – to create the solutions the world needs today to enable a better tomorrow. That is why we say no to fossil-based projects and aspire to support activities that move our customers toward sustainability.

We value differences and development and cultivate an environment of belonging and having fun. Because that is what brings out the best in you, at work and at home.

With offices primarily located in Scandinavia, the UK, North America, and India, we are currently 8,000 people who bring their expertise in engineering, architecture, energy and environment into play.
