Working In Denmark

Jobseekers could find it difficult to find temporary work other than fruit picking without knowledge of the Danish language. There are opportunities for work in hotels, restaurants and pubs in Copenhagen and other main cities.

British and European camping companies operate in Denmark and jobs can be found in the summer working in campsites where knowledge of the Danish language isn't essential.

Au Pairs usually need some childcare experience but won't always need to be able to speak danish. Au pairs live with host families, looking after the children and perform basic domestic duties such as cleaning. Wages are often low but food and accommodation is usually included.

There are hundreds of job vacancies for fruit pickers each summer. Strawberry picking takes places in June/July, Cherries in July/August, Apples in September/October. Details for these can be found by contacting EURES.

Voluntary work available includes conservation, renovation, environment and archaeological work.
