We are now looking for a new Head of Communication DK who with their experience and passion will continue building the strong connections between Nordea's customers, stakeholders and the public.

About our team

Group Brand, Communication and Marketing (GBCM) unit focuses on close collaboration and synergy between the very related areas of communication, marketing and branding and works towards common priorities on the positioning and identity applying our knowledge and experience from each of our disciplines.

As the Head of Communications DK, you will be leading a team of 7 communication specialists covering media, SoMe, employee engagement and content production for our Nordea channels. You will report directly to the Head of Group Brand, Communication and Marketing in Denmark. You will also have a dotted line to the Head of Group Corporate Communication.

As a leader, you play a key role in developing and supporting your team members to reach their aspirations and unleash their full potential.

Collaboration. Ownership. Passion. Courage. These are the values that guide us in how we work and how we make decisions – and that we imagine you share with us.

What you'll be doing

  1. Execute the comprehensive communication strategy for the country, both internally and externally.
  2. Lead a key team in Nordea that is central to delivering on our ambitions to strengthen our brand, reputation and position in Denmark.
  3. Drive and execute the Danish reputation strategy with a 360 approach, tying SoMe, media, internal communications, content production close together with our brand marketing activities.
  4. Plan and execute proactive external communication and thought leadership with Nordea's spokespersons covering a broad range of topics, supporting the press team in handling daily media interactions and building relationships with journalists and editorial teams.
  5. Drive communication related to Nordea's quarterly results in strong collaboration with our Nordic colleagues.
  6. Act as a trusted adviser to Danish business area heads, experts, and spokespersons.
  7. Proactively manage reputational risks and lead high intensity situations through strong stakeholder management and execution.
  8. Coordinate communication plans and strategies in close relationship with the rest of Marketing & Communications team in Denmark, our public affairs team and the Danish business.

Who you are

This is the right role for you if you are an experienced senior leader with high integrity, passionate about creating a positive, collaborative working environment. You should be driven, proactive, structured, and bring a positive can-do attitude, finding possible solutions to any challenge.

Your background and skills include:

  1. Extensive experience in corporate communications and media relations, with a journalistic background considered a merit.
  2. Broad experience in reputational risk management.
  3. Senior leadership skills and demonstrated resilience in high-pressure situations.
  4. Strong industry and business understanding, as well as exceptional stakeholder management skills.
  5. Proven ability to develop and implement communication strategies in a Nordic corporate environment.
  6. Excellent communication skills in both Danish and English.

It would be ideal if you also:

  1. Have experience working in the financial services sector.
  2. Possess in-depth knowledge of the Nordic media landscapes.
  3. Have a track record of leading across various communication disciplines.
  4. Demonstrated successful execution of thought leadership initiatives.

As the Leader you are expected to and have a crucial role in:

  1. Creating purpose by translating strategy into operational and actionable plans to showcase how we create value for our customers and impact business priorities.
  2. Empowering people by identifying individual development opportunities to support growth and encourage them to share own ideas, concerns and learnings.
  3. Driving performance by recognising individual contributions and collective victories to maintain a healthy balance through measurable goals and clear priorities for each team member.
  4. Developing teams by nurturing a dynamic team culture, that emphasises trust and respect to ensure that everyone understands their unique value and contribution.
  5. Fostering inclusion by creating equal opportunity through curiosity about all aspects of diversity in your team to evaluate habits and perspectives on a continuous basis.
