Intern for Ramboll Management Consulting, Sustainability Consulting and ESG
Copenhagen, Denmark
Do you want to change the world and move businesses and societies in a sustainable direction – and help build resilient societies equipped to handle future challenges? Do you want to push the boundaries of your profession and develop your excellence in an open, collaborative, and empowering culture while being part of our journey to create a globally leading consultancy within sustainability and strategy?
Bring your interest in sustainability, strategy, transformation, and business development into play as you help deliver integrated and sustainable solutions as a management consulting intern. In this position, you will gain insights into a global consultancy while obtaining solid knowledge of sustainability and what it takes to be a management consultant.
We are passionate about the green transition, circular economy, sustainable finance, social sustainability, and building resilient societies that can adapt and thrive amid uncertainty. We specialise in business and sustainability consulting within various sectors such as energy, infrastructure, financial institutions, investors, manufacturing, water, buildings and cities. Our clients are mainly found within the private sphere, but we also advise public sector institutions and civil society actors. In doing so, we provide sustainability strategies, financial advisory, and implementation plans as a one-stop shop for our clients. We believe that the true value of our work lies in combining traditional business and strategy consulting with true sustainability expertise within the same team. This allows us to deliver coherent solutions that strengthen both sustainability outcomes and business performance at the same time.
If this sounds like you, or you’re curious to learn more, then this role could be the perfect opportunity. Join our Sustainability Consulting and ESG team as our new Intern and work with us to close the gap to a sustainable future.
Your new role
As our new sustainability intern, you will be challenged with a busy workday in an interdisciplinary environment, where you will learn about all parts of a project, from tendering to project execution. You will be an integrated part of our team, and from the moment you join us, you will be supported in your personal and professional development. We can promise you a steep learning curve, where you will be working with, and learning from the best within sustainability. You will gain experience from challenging and complex projects and participate in training tailored to our team and your professional experience, equipping you with a sharp methodological toolbox.
Your tasks will vary and depend on the project scope and your personal development goals.
Typical project responsibilities for an intern include market research, analysing sustainability data, benchmarking exercises, creating presentations, writing reports and proposals, and participating in client workshops.

Within the team, we collaborate with leading organisations across Denmark and Europe on pressing sustainability issues.
