People & Culture Coordinator
Global Maritime Forum, Copenhagen
Apply before 4 May 2025
Do you want to join our mission to make the maritime industry more sustainable for both people and planet? The Global Maritime Forum is looking for a People & Culture coordinator to help take our activities to the next level. You will support our team of roughly 50 colleagues, both those in our main office in central Copenhagen and those who work remotely from around the world.
This is the perfect opportunity for those early in their HR career or those looking to build on and broaden their People & Culture profile and skills. You will have the chance to join our international, diverse team of purpose-driven individuals committed to shaping the future of global seaborne trade. Your role will support the Global Maritime Forum’s ambitions of seamless, compliant and effortless People & Culture operations across the organisation. If that sounds interesting, please keep reading to learn more.
👔 About the role
As a key member of our two-person People & Culture team, you will support and operate the People & Culture efforts in the Global Maritime Forum from A to Z. You will have an important role in running the day-to-day admin tasks and processes and will be the main point of contact for time registration and employee handbook enquiries. You will also ensure alignment and efficiency across the organisation by following up on processes and procedures related to the annual cycle in People & Culture.
In collaboration with the Finance and Operations teams, you will ensure that payroll runs smoothly and that we succeed in our recruiting and onboarding efforts, both culturally and administratively. You will also ensure internal alignment and general quality standards are met in all activities related to the employee life cycle.
With around 25 nationalities in the organisation, the People & Culture Coordinator will help ensure compliance with local legislation and continuously build shared knowledge of country-specific legislation, adjusting processes, adapting to locale procedures and developing new and smarter ways to operate our P&C activities. You will serve as a liaison within the organisation, maintaining accuracy and consistency in navigating intercultural settings and supporting the inclusion of remote team members.
As we operate in a dynamic environment, we are constantly looking to attract smart and skilled employees who align with our purpose of driving positive change. You will support the full employee recruitment process—including drafting job descriptions, posting job ads, searching through LinkedIn, screening candidates, coordinating interviews, advising on relocation, drafting contracts, securing documents, and initiating and coordinating onboarding. Your overall goal will be to ensure that candidates experience a professional recruitment process.
The hardest and the most exciting part of this job is managing the wide array of tasks and keeping track of the many ad hoc requests and needs that arise. It is therefore vital that you enjoy juggling multiple projects, workstreams, and tasks. The upside is that you will develop significant expertise and get a unique understanding of the maritime sector and NGOs working in the climate and human sustainability space.
