What you'll do

From there, your day-to-day partners will span senior leaders, their teams and colleagues across corporate functions. You will also collaborate with other assistants and administrative professionals across the organisation. The role gives you visibility across the business and the opportunity to connect people and priorities in a way that keeps work moving.

The role offers the chance to build strong professional relationships across the organisation, develop your skills through varied and fast-paced work, and grow alongside a leadership team that is shaping how Novo Nordisk operates at scale.

In addition to being part of a collaborative and authentic culture, our employees are rewarded with Health and Wellbeing days, gifted leave between Christmas and New Year, extensive
