KOMPAN Graduate Programme - Commercial

KOMPAN A/S Published Friday, January 30, 2026
Application deadline Sunday, March 15, 2026

Ready to get off the bench and onto the playground?

Are you ready to turn theory into action, roll up your sleeves and learn how growth is created in a global company? The KOMPAN Commercial Graduate Programme is your training ground for a long-term career in sales, business development and commercial strategy - with hands-on daily work, exciting projects and a front-row seat to how we win in different markets.

You won't just observe from the sidelines. You'll jump in, rotate across the business and help drive growth through customer engagement, and sharp market insights - one playground at a time. 

 

A 2-year journey across the KOMPAN playground

The Commercial Graduate track is a two-year rotational programme for recent university graduates, designed to help you understand how KOMPAN drives growth across different sales set-ups, customer segments and markets.

Like any great playground, you'll explore 3 different cornerstones of KOMPAN: 3 rotations, each 7 months long - building your confidence, skills and commercial acumen across the entire value chain:

  • Sales: working close to customers and the front line, supporting sales execution and customer engagement
  • HQ: working with commercial analyses, market insights, sales excellence or growth initiatives
  • Supply Chain: building your commercial skillset through operations and procurement work

Specific responsibilities will vary by rotation and shaped by business needs, your aspirations and development, ensuring a steep learning curve and broad commercial exposure. You'll be expected to get your hands dirty in day-to-day operations, because we believe that's where real learning happens.

During each rotation, you'll complete a strategy-related business case, applying what you've learnt to real challenges. In your final months as a KOMPAN Graduate, you'll take on an end-point assessment - a business case tied to KOMPAN's strategy - testing how far you've come and giving back value to the company.

 

The successful KOMPAN Graduate

At KOMPAN, we believe your potential and mindset matter most. Our Graduate Programme is designed for those who are eager to grow, learn and make an impact. What you don't know, we'll teach you.

The essentials:

  • You're a recent Bachelor's or Master's graduate (we imagine that you are graduating in the summer or within the last two years)
  • You're ready to relocate during and after the programme. Previous international experience is a plus
  • You're fluent in English. Proficiency in Danish, French and/or German is a bonus but not a necessity 

Ultimately, we're looking for Graduates who bring energy, curiosity and drive, so our non-negotiables are that, you are:

  • Eager to learn and grow - personally and professionally
  • Ambitious and determined, with a strong work ethic
  • A proactive problem-solver who takes initiative
  • Resilient and adaptable, ready to thrive in new environments
  • Curious and playfully innovative, always looking for better ways to do things
  • Willing to roll up our sleeves and take on any task - big or small
  • A constructive challenger who questions the status quo and embraces feedback
