P&O Junior Analyst: Talent Attraction / People Analytics

Do you have an eye for detail and thrive in providing excellent service? Are you data-driven and analytically strong, with the ability to see the bigger picture? Then keep on reading – we might have your next work experience in a versatile HR function as P&O Junior Analyst. 

We are looking for a Jr. Analyst to support our activities in our People & Organisation (P&O) team. As a student in the P&O department, you will be exposed to the dynamics of an investment enterprise from a people-perspective.

The Job 

In this role, you will be working side by side with the P&O Team supporting all areas of the P&O department, from Talent Attraction and People Strategy to Rewards, Operations and People Analytics. You will have a broad range of responsibilities and it is expected that you are able to deliver operational detail and overview. You will provide general support to the P&O team, though with a primary focus on onboarding new colleagues. 

Your tasks as a Junior Analyst will, amongst others, include: 

• Responsibility and ownership of the onboarding and offboarding process, including maintenance of P&O databases and systems to support recurring organizational needs and analysis. 
• Coordination and communication with colleagues, giving attention to both specifics and the broader context, with a primary focus on recruitment processes and candidate management. 
• Leverage analytical abilities to process, visualize and analyze people data to contribute to strategic planning initiatives across investment teams in the organization.  
• Manage HR data, including monthly payroll and finance tasks, to ensure accuracy and compliance with organizational standards. 
• Assist colleagues in processes related to recruitment, training, organizational development, and engagement across investment teams. 

In addition, we value your willingness to assist in developing insights in our data-driven organization and effectively managing stakeholders with backgrounds from banking, consulting, and the investment ecosystem. From time to time, we also hope you are eager to help develop presentations, book venues, and plan events and other ad hoc tasks as they pop up. We work with a flexible and responsible approach where you have the freedom to plan and execute your tasks in the manner you see most appropriate. As part of your learning and development, you will receive continuous feedback from and engage in sparring with the team.

The workload will be approximately 15-20 hours a week with flexibility related to your studies. You will join a team of 10 dedicated and ambitious employees as well as one other Junior Analyst supporting our organisation on all HR matters, from operational to strategic. 

Professional and Personal Qualifications

To be a part of our team, you can come from various backgrounds. Still, the crucial element is that you see yourself as detail-oriented and structured with a flair for project management and supporting excellent employee experiences. You are inherently driven by numbers and thrive on leveraging data to inform strategic decision-making processes. We expect that you can initiate and complete tasks independently while also contributing effectively as a team player. The ideal candidate should, over time, be able to maintain a good overview of their activities and foresee possible roadblocks in the processes they own.

Furthermore, we hope to meet a candidate that has: 

• At least two years left of their education (e.g. enrolled in a bachelor’s or starting your master’s degree after summer). 
• Is proficient in both spoken and written English (Danish is a plus, but not a prerequisite) 
• Solution-oriented, systematic in delivering your tasks, and proficient in applying IT tools in daily tasks and operations. 
• Demonstrates strong analytical skills and finds satisfaction in working with large datasets, proficiently utilizing analytic tools (e.g. Excel).
