Come work with us

We are a workplace where you’ll meet dedicated colleagues who share a desire to make a real difference.

Be a part of something bigger 

Do you want to work for a more just world? At DanChurchAid, we make a tangible difference – every day. Through our values: compassion, action, accountability, and respect we work with emergency aid, development, and sustainability in some of the world’s most vulnerable areas. We can’t do this without committed and skilled people – like you. 

DanChurchAid as a place to work

What’s it like? In short: Meaningful, diverse, and action-oriented. 
We are a workplace where you’ll meet dedicated colleagues who share a desire to make a real difference. Our culture is characterised by openness, collaboration, and a high level of trust – in both each other and new ideas. 
We are an organisation in motion – growing and evolving both professionally and as individuals. We dare to think differently, we learn from our mistakes, and we put people first. Both those we help and our colleagues. 

We invest in you

We believe your well-being is crucial, and therefore we offer: 

  • Professional and personal development – learning is a natural part of your everyday life, and we give you space to both specialise and think broadly. 
  • Flexibility – because work and private life should align, not compete. 
  • A community with heart and action – you’ll have colleagues who both want to and dare to make a difference. 
  • A global perspective – with the opportunity to collaborate across cultures and borders. 

Tips for your application

Here’s what we’re looking for:

  • A great professional foundation 
  • Clear engagement with global or social issues 
  • The ability to work cross-culturally and in complex contexts 
  • Curiosity, independence, and collaboration skills 
  • Authenticity – be yourself and show how your values align with ours 

When applying for a job at DanChurchAid 

We look for people who both can and want to make a difference. 
We operate based on the principles of Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging (DIB) and consider all people – regardless of age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or ethnicity – ideal candidates.

We believe in transparency, decency, and accountability – and we expect the same from you. By applying for a job at DanChurchAid, you agree to comply with our policies for the prevention of sexual exploitation, abuse, and harassment, as well as child protection.
