CONTEXT
ORGANISATIONAL DESCRIPTION: 

ActionAid Denmark is part of ActionAid International, a global federation working for social justice, gender equality, and the eradication of poverty. Together, we stand with more than 25 million people across 45 countries who are driving change in their own communities and beyond.

From headquarter in Copenhagen, we collaborate with colleagues and partners around the world to challenge inequality, strengthen civil society, and create lasting social and political change. ActionAid Denmark was founded in 1944 and has deep roots in community organising — from rebuilding Europe after World War II to empowering young people and women on the frontlines of today’s struggles for climate justice, equality, and democracy.

We are guided by feminist leadership principles — promoting equality, transparency, mutual respect, and care in everything we do. These principles shape both how we work internally and how we partner externally, ensuring that power is shared, voices are heard, and everyone can thrive.

At ActionAid Denmark, you will join a vibrant, value-driven organisation that combines a global reach with a strong Danish identity, and where every role contributes to building fairer and more sustainable societies.

TEAM DESCRIPTION/TEAM CONTEXT: 

You will be part of the People & IT team — a small, dedicated, and solution-oriented group of seven colleagues who support both our Danish office and international teams across the world.

Our goal is to make it simple, transparent, and meaningful to work and lead within ActionAid Denmark. We take pride in delivering excellent HR support, ensuring smooth administrative processes, and creating a great employee experience — whether a colleague is based in Copenhagen, Nairobi, or Amman.

We strive to live out our feminist leadership values by creating a culture of care, collaboration, and accountability. As HR Administrator – Expatriate Services, you will play a key coordinating role in ensuring that expatriate staff have a seamless experience, from payroll and contracts to relocation and compliance — enabling our global teams to focus on the change they create.
