Odense, Denmark KOMPAN AS Full time

Are you motivated by solution-oriented dialogs with designers, engineers, and production? And are you passionate about bringing your flair for testing, product development, and product safety into play? Then you have the opportunity to help develop future solutions for playgrounds and outdoor fitness equipment.

For KOMPAN A/S, we are looking for an experienced Product Safety Manager who will be located at our head office in Odense, Denmark. Here, you will be part of our Product Innovation team together with other specialists.

Central Role in Product Safety and Compliance

You will play a central role in KOMPAN’s development team, working in close collaboration with the rest of the organization on new and further development of exciting product lines.

The focal point is the safety evaluation of customer-specific projects, where you will be involved from the idea stage right up to the handover to production.

You will be the key safety person on the projects and an innovative and creative player in the interdisciplinary collaboration creating innovative solutions.

Your responsibilities include:

  • Being an expert within selected segments/product lines
  • Participating in the safety evaluation of customer-specific solutions designed and developed in KOMPAN's own Design Studios.
  • Participating in product development projects and providing safety input to designers and engineers.
  • Preparing test specifications.
  • In collaboration with the rest of the Product Safety team, defining KOMPAN's standard and test products and components against it. These tests are performed together with KOMPAN's own workshop or external partners.
  • Documenting that all relevant standards and legal requirements are met on new and existing products within the product line.
  • Engaging in dialog with certified third-party authorities, TÜV, UL, etc.

You will be part of the Product Safety department, which consists of 6 dedicated colleagues in Denmark and 3 in the Czech Republic. For the position, limited travel activity of 10-20 days per year is expected.

Product Safety and Compliance Expert with a Technical Background

You hold an educational background as a mechanical or production engineer or similar and have been working with product safety for more than 5 years. You probably come from the manufacturing industry, with a focus on product development or quality assurance.

To be successful in the role, you must, in close collaboration with stakeholders and colleagues across the organization, maintain product safety in a direction where serious accidents on KOMPAN's playgrounds and other product lines are avoided.

This is based on your analytical approach and a natural interest and curiosity for product development where quality and safety are paramount.

You must understand the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration, both internally and externally, to jointly create the conditions for the best solutions.

You thrive in an open culture where daily life is characterized by dedicated colleagues who are passionate about their profession and products, and where the pulse can be high at times. There is a healthy growth culture with good development opportunities.

Further, you:

  • Have a great experience with standards and tests but would also like to help set new standards.
  • Have a strong sense of ownership and the ability to make decisions on an informed and well-argued basis.
  • Have good written and verbal communication skills.
  • Are fluent in written and spoken English.
