Senior Sustainability Consultant

at  Danske Bank

Elevate your career as Senior Sustainability Consultant at Danske Bank and join us in making sustainable choices more accessible for our personal customers across the Nordics.
At Danske Bank, we believe in banking with purpose and driving positive change. We’re seeking a new Senior Sustainability Consultant to continue the transformative process across personal and private banking customers in the Nordic markets.
While a sustainability or finance background is beneficial – especially experience with CO2 calculations/GHG emissions, SBTi and CSRD – what truly matters are your analytical skills and your ability to translate sustainability targets and regulatory demands into business action to meet customers’ demands and societal expectations.
You will report to the Head of Sustainability for Personal Customers and will be working from Danske Bank’s headquarters in Postbyen, Copenhagen.
“We look forward to hearing from you if you are committed to make sustainable choices more accessible for our customers and embedding sustainability in the mindset of our colleagues and stakeholders”.
