Find a Job in Denmark: The 17 Best Job Portals

If you’re looking for a job in Denmark, one of the first steps is understanding where to search for those jobs. With dozens of job portals available, it can feel overwhelming, especially if you’re new to the country or not yet fluent in Danish.

The good news? There’s a job portal for almost every need, whether you’re a recent graduate, a tech specialist, or simply looking for English-speaking roles. In this article, I’ll break down the most useful job portals in Denmark and help you choose the right ones for your job search.

Most job seekers begin their search on general job platforms. These cover a wide range of industries, from entry-level to executive roles. These sites are especially good to get an idea of the Danish job market and what type of jobs are available in general.

Jobindex.dk

Denmark’s largest job portal, Jobindex, functions like a search engine, pulling in listings from over 500 sources. It covers nearly every sector and has thousands of active jobs, including many in English.

Best for: A wide overview of the Danish job market

Language options: Danish & English

Jobnet.dk

Jobnet is the official government job site. If you’re registered with the job center (Jobcenter), this is the portal you’ll be expected to use. It lists both private and public jobs, with free tools for building your CV and finding courses.

Best for: Public sector jobs and following official job search rules

Language options: Danish only

If you’re still learning Danish or plan to work in an international environment, these sites focus on English-language job opportunities:

WorkinDenmark.dk

Work in Denmark is a government-backed site designed for internationals. All job ads are in English, and you’ll find guidance on CVs, relocation, and permits. Most listings are for skilled roles in IT, healthcare, life sciences, and engineering.

Best for: Skilled international professionals

Language options: English only

JobsInEnglish.dk and EnglishJobs.dk

These niche job portals focus on roles where English is the primary working language. They list jobs across industries, including customer service, marketing, finance, and tech.

Best for: English-speaking professionals in any field

Language options: English

LinkedIn Jobs

LinkedIn is widely used in Denmark, not just for networking, but also for job hunting. You can filter for roles in Denmark, choose language preferences, and see which companies are hiring in English. LinkedIn is not the best, because Denmark is such a small market for them; however, more and more companies use it.

Best for: Networking and direct job applications

Language options: English & Danish

If you’re studying or have recently graduated in Denmark, don’t miss these platforms:

• StuderendeOnline.dk – Student jobs and student internships

• Nyuddannet.dk – For recent graduates

• Jobbank.dk – Often linked to university career portals

• Jobteaser.com – International graduate jobs and internships

Tip: If you’re an international student, check your university’s career center for exclusive listings.

There’s no one-size-fits-all job portal. What works for a software developer might not suit a recent graduate or a nurse. Try combining general platforms (like Jobindex or LinkedIn) with more targeted ones (like WorkinDenmark or The Hub), depending on your industry and language preference.
