Denmark

We’ve been in Gentofte in the greater Copenhagen area since 2002. This is our largest office in Denmark.

A well-connected, international workplace

Our light, modern, open office in Gentofte is situated about 10 km north of Copenhagen city centre and is easily accessible by bike, train, bus, and car.

The office has plenty of cycle and car parking available free of charge, including EV charging points. Along with bus stops right outside the office, the nearby Jægersborg S-train station provides a fast, direct connection to Copenhagen’s northern and southern suburbs, the city centre (17 minutes to Nørreport station), and the rest of the public transport network. The station is only 10–15 minutes away via the staff foot tunnel, which provides a shortcut under the motorway.

Health and well-being are a priority at our Gentofte office. Facilities include a gym and fitness classes, massage and physiotherapy, rehabilitation programmes, and psychological counselling. To support cycling to work, lockers, showers, and on-site bike servicing are available.

Employees can also enjoy breakfast and lunch in the renovated canteen for a modest monthly fee, as well as free fruit and coffee throughout the building. The café, canteen, and shared areas provide welcoming spaces for collaboration and informal meetings, while our staff club and employee networks create opportunities to connect with colleagues socially and professionally. 

Skærbæk is Ørsted’s global headquarters. Located near Fredericia in Jutland, it sits at the heart of one of Denmark’s key offshore wind hubs and is home to 780 of our employees.

A global hub in a beautiful setting

Our office in Skærbæk is located beside the marina, about halfway between the cities of Fredericia and Kolding in Jutland. Easily accessible by motorway, the site also has a bus stop around 10 minutes away on foot and offers ample cycle and car parking, including EV charging points.

Health and well-being are a priority at our Skærbæk office. Employees have access to fitness facilities and classes, massage and physiotherapy, rehabilitation programmes, and psychological counselling.

Staff can enjoy breakfast and lunch in the canteen for a modest monthly fee, with a varied menu and fresh fruit available daily. Free coffee is available throughout the building.

Near the head office, employees can rent housing in ‘Medarbejderbyen’, a residential area with 46 rental properties, or use commuter accommodation at Skærgården. The FRI-TID staff club also offers a range of sporting, cultural, and social activities, providing opportunities to connect with colleagues outside of work.

Home to one of the world’s most efficient combined heat and power plants, Avedøre, south of Copenhagen, has 147 staff working in technical and administrative roles.

A tight-knit community keeping Copenhagen warm

Avedøre Power Station was commissioned in 1990 to provide district heating and electricity for the Greater Copenhagen area. Today, a close community of Ørsted employees works across three buildings in both technical and administrative roles.

The site has easy access to the motorway and is situated only a short bus ride from Friheden station. From here, it’s a short journey to the city centre by S-train (18 minutes to Nørreport). There are plenty of cycle and car parking spaces, including e-car charging points.

Roles at Avedøre are in the following areas:

• Operations and technicians
• Finance and controlling
• Human resources
• IT and digital

Health, wellbeing, and the great outdoors

For a modest monthly fee, staff can eat breakfast and lunch in the canteen, which serves a high-quality, healthy, and varied menu with options reflecting the diversity of our employees. We also provide everyone working at Avedøre with fruit every day, whether or not they are part of the canteen scheme. The canteen can be used as a common area for smaller meetings.

As well as great indoor fitness facilities, staff here have the possibility to make the most of Avedøre’s coastal location by borrowing sailing and water sports equipment, such as kayaks and paddle boards.

Make a connection

The staff club at Avedøre is called Trekløveren. It offers sport and cultural activities, organises summer celebrations, Christmas parties, and groups for people with diverse interests, from books to wine to bikes. Friends and family can often participate in activities organised by Trekløveren.

Located in the Kattegat Sea, Anholt is one of Denmark’s largest offshore wind farms. It’s operated and maintained by 50 people based at the onshore service organisation in Grenå, 60 km east of Aarhus in Jutland.

A close community of highly skilled workers

Anholt offshore windfarm has its onshore base in Grenå, the principle town of the beautiful Djursland peninsula in north-east Jutland. Operating here since 2012, the service operation consists of highly skilled wind turbine technicians, service vessel crew, and administrative functions. Many employees live locally in and around Grenå, meaning they can walk or cycle to work. For those coming from further afield, there are parking spaces on site and a bus stop nearby. Denmark’s second largest city, Aarhus, is about one hour away by car or light rail.

Areas of work at Anholt include:

• Administration
• Finance and controlling
• Procurement
• Operations and technicians
• Facilities

Brand new facilities on the quayside

The site consists of two new purpose-built office buildings – one for administrative staff, one for technicians – along with storage and workshop facilities. All staff are served by the office canteen and fitness room and have use of site bikes free of charge. The quayside location provides easy access to service vessels and an incredible view over the Kattegat sea.

Life as a technician at Anholt

The technicians who maintain Anholt are divided into two teams, alternating duty and leave every week. When the weather prevents work from taking place on the windfarm itself, on-duty technicians have access to excellent recreation facilities. There is also a large grill at the office so technicians can cook together after a long day off shore.

An active staff club

The Anholt Staff Club is very active, organising various social events and activities throughout the year. The club offers free access to swimming facilities, Crossfit, mountain bikes, and paddle boards, which can be used in the spare time with colleagues, family, and friends. The running club is a very popular activity.
