Ascendis Pharma is a global biopharmaceutical company committed to making a meaningful difference in patients’ lives. Guided by our core values of Patients, Science, and Passion, we are applying our innovative TransCon® technology platform to fulfill our mission of developing new therapies that demonstrate best-in-class potential to address unmet medical needs.

We are seeking a passionate Student Assistant to join our digital delivery and change competency area in Global IT. In this role, you will help people adapt to new ways of working with IT solutions, such as new systems, processes, or tools. For example, when rolling out a new payroll system, change management includes training employees, communicating what’s changing and why, and supporting employees so they can confidently start using the new system in their daily work.

When relevant, you will be supporting activities in adjacent teams in the fields of facilitation, user experience, design thinking, and project delivery.

• Collaborating with team members to design and prepare engaging workshops, including: agenda setting, creating workshop materials, and logistics

• Facilitating or co-facilitating workshop sessions, capturing workshop outcomes, and supporting workshop follow-up actions

• Helping your colleagues with ad hoc tasks, e.g. building information sites (e.g. on SharePoint) for end-users to find information on IT solutions

Furthermore, you :

• Communicate clearly in PowerPoint, with the ability to structure presentations and create engaging layouts, graphic designs and diagrams

• Write concisely and persuasively in English

• Thrive in a project-based environment, juggling multiple tasks while keeping a clear overview and staying on top of priorities

As a person, you are

• Able to work independently and can run with a task with minimal supervision

• A self-starter, a do-er and not afraid to learn from your mistakes

• Comfortable facilitating groups of varying sizes (e.g., up to 100) in person and online - or up for learning and practicing these skills

• Conscientious and proactive about your tasks to meet deadlines

Hours : 15-20 hours per week. We want you to be able to balance your studies and work responsibilities and therefore offer flexibility during exam periods.
