The café, canteen, and other common areas are designed to enhance the working environment. With trees and water features inside and outside, you’ll find plenty of space to sit or walk, for reflection and collaboration, department events, and even private dining after work.

Our staff club, ARENA, gives employees the opportunity to socialise together outside of work hours. Activities include everything from sport to art and culture, and there’s often a possibility for friends and family to join in too.

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.

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.

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.
