The Embassy is seeking to recruit a positive, dynamic, multi-skilled person with strong customer service focus, exceptional communication skills and attention to detail. Candidates must demonstrate a high level of integrity, self-motivation, and initiative.<\/p>\n
You will be working in a team of 5 employees. The main tasks of the Visa Team are to handle the portfolio of visa applications to Denmark, Sweden, and Finland. As Visa Officer, you will be responsible for the processing of visa applications to these countries. You are, however, expected to show the flexibility required for an optimal handling of the entire portfolio of the Embassy and thus be ready to contribute to handling tasks outside your own portfolio such as consular cases if the need arises.<\/p>\n
