UNHCR has relocated several key functions from our Headquarters in Geneva to UN City in Copenhagen, including UNHCR’s Private Sector Partnerships Service (PSP), which supports UNHCR’s growing engagement with the general public and the private sector in all regions of the world

UNHCR’s Private Sector Partnerships team for Denmark was established in 2018 and covers both individual giving and partnerships with Danish foundations, corporates and individual philanthropists. PSP Denmark is experiencing strong growth. One of our key priorities is to further accelerate the Private Partnerships and Philanthropy (PPH) programme and expand and deepen our partnerships with foundations and corporates in Denmark. 

To achieve this goal, PSP Denmark is hiring an experienced colleague to manage and further develop a number of new strategic partnerships with large foundations and corporates in Denmark.\

This new position sits within the PPH team, which currently consists of 4 persons who all work closely with the rest of the PSP Denmark team engaged in press, campaigns and individual giving. The PPH team works in a very informal and non-hierarchical manner with strong collaboration across functions and frequent interactions with regional and global colleagues, including technical teams in the field operations.

  • Organize events for donors, partners and prospects;
  • Ensure compelling partnership and thematic communication on UNHCR’s digital channels in Denmark, as relevant, in close collaboration with regional and global communication teams;

  • Substantial experience in complex account management and capacity to balance the needs of multiple stakeholders to achieve mutual benefit;
