At Danish Crown we are challenging ourselves and taking the lead in finding sustainable solutions. As an important part of this, we are looking for a Senior Sustainable Specialist, for an established position, who can develop and implement our ambitious LCA model and join us in implementing our sustainability strategy in Danish Crown.

Drive and implement our strong sustainability strategy across the business
Overall, you will be a part of the strong Sustainability Team in Danish Crown and joining one of the most exciting sustainability journeys in the business today – transforming agriculture.

Your most important task will be to secure the implementation and further development of our new LCA model together with colleagues, the business, farmers, production sites and customers. You will take the lead in continuously developing and improving our LCA standards, data processes, and metrics to build strong transparency and support for strategic decision-making across our business. You enjoy working with complex spreadsheets as you will collect, manage, and ensure the quality and integrity of data from multiple sources throughout our value chain from farms, abattoirs, processing sites and customers.

To succeed in this role, you also have a natural flair for working closely with the business and external stakeholders daily.

Here is a list of some of your daily tasks:

For the right candidate, we will set up a thorough development plan together with internal and external resources, so you can become fully qualified for this important role.

You possess excellent project management skills, monitoring, following up, involving stakeholders, evaluating and reporting progress and results. You are a savvy data specialist, who communicates complex data in an easily understandable manner. You master English at negotiating level.
