Are you motivated by supporting colleagues, maintaining data quality, and making sure nothing falls between the cracks - even when tasks are repetitive and detail-oriented?
If so, you might be our new Purchasing Coordinator we are looking for at ABENA!
You will join our Waste Management team and play an important role in supporting day-to-day purchasing activities. You will work closely with sales, marketing, and our international subsidiaries, helping to ensure that product information, data, and processes flow smoothly across the organization. The position involves a variety of coordinating and administrative tasks, many of which follow established processes and workflows. Therefore, it is important that you enjoy working in a structured environment and creating structures where these are lacking.
Your main responsibilities
- Maintain and update supplier and product master data across systems
- Manage product registrations, documentation, and certificates
- Follow up on missing documentation, contracts, and supplier requirements
- Support coordination across Product Management, Sales, Marketing, and Logistics on product and campaign activities
- Contribute to quality assurance processes and handle deviations in dialogue with suppliers
- Handle product-related questions and provide day-to-day administrative support
What we hope you bring:
You don’t need to come from a specific industry. What matters most is that you’re structured, curious, and good at getting things done, ideally with some experience from purchasing or a coordination role.
- Ideally, but not necessarily, you have relevant commercial or purchasing-related education, or some experience from a similar coordinator role
- Enjoy working with data and systems, and paying attention to details
- Are comfortable in Excel and quick to learn new tools
- Work independently, take ownership, and follow through
- Thrive in a busy environment and stay focused on solutions - even when things change
- Being able to communicate at all organizational levels in Danish and English
Your Team, Our Culture and Values
You will join a collaborative team of Global Category Manager, Product Managers, and Coordinators, where we rely on each other to succeed and share a strong commitment to our goals. We continuously refine our ways of working, focusing on clear structures and roles, while supporting each other across responsibilities to succeed as one team.
Your leader at ABENA will be Global Category Manager Michael Søbye Eye, who describes his leadership style as follows:
“I am an action-oriented and accountable leader who creates results through trust, dialogue, and clear direction. I motivate employees by aligning responsibilities with their strengths and offering full support in daily operations. I believe engagement and ownership foster well-being and strong teams. With great ambitions but also room for mistakes, I care for both professional and personal growth.”
At ABENA, we blend professionalism with a warm, people-first culture where collaboration, curiosity, and continuous improvement thrive. Guided by our core values of trust, fairness, and cooperation, we take pride in delivering high-quality work with integrity. We value learning, teamwork, and independence, while appreciating responsibility and attention to detail. Work here is meaningful and enjoyable, supported by strong cross-functional collaboration and a healthy, engaging environment. Though our days can be busy and deadline-driven, we maintain an informal, supportive atmosphere where there’s always room for a laugh, even on a grey Monday.
