Play a key role in ensuring that patients and consumers can access Novo’s innovative medicines now and in the future. Health economics modelling, pricing analytics, payer evidence generation, reimbursement submissions and access strategy development are just a few of the tasks we perform in this high growth area.

As you embark on your life changing career in Novo Nordisk, we will provide you with:

  • Broad functional experience and strong technical skills within market access
  • Accelerated personal and professional development from day one
  • International professional experience and networking with colleagues across global teams
  • Broad visibility across the organisation and the opportunity to establish yourself as one of tomorrow’s key people in the function

Throughout the programme and your rotations, you will contribute as a fully fledged member in three different teams, building practical insight and developing towards a specialist profile. You will work across the three core specialisations: pricing, payer evidence and health economics.

Your journey will be shaped by business needs and strategic priorities, giving you insight into different parts of the function and the wider organisation. An example could look like:

First rotation, Denmark: Starting at our headquarters, you could join the global pricing team, developing technical skills in a key access function while gaining a comprehensive introduction to corporate life.

Second rotation, affiliate: In an affiliate, you could work directly with local reimbursement and submission strategies, building an understanding of how global direction translates into local market realities.

Third rotation, Regional Office in Denmark: At a regional office, you may strengthen your technical capabilities and gain operational insight by working with pricing strategies, submissions and policies across different markets. You may also lead a defined project and apply the knowledge, network and capabilities gained from previous rotations.

As a Global Market Access Graduate, you will build a broad understanding of how treatment solutions ultimately reach our patients and consumers. From day one, you will work on meaningful assignments, contribute to your rotation teams and collaborate with colleagues across the pharmaceutical value chain.

The programme offers you:

  • Accelerated personal and professional development
  • Insight into a global company and strong networking opportunities
  • Experience across different access disciplines
  • Insight into the development and lifecycle of innovative treatment solutions
  • Responsibility for projects and deliverables within your rotation teams
  • Development of project management, communication, stakeholder management and leadership capabilities
  • Access to a diverse global graduate network

Together, these experiences will provide a strong foundation in core market access areas, business understanding and collaboration skills needed for a future career as a Market Access Professional.

You are curious, ambitious, and motivated by making a meaningful difference. Excited by the opportunities offered by AI, digital technologies, and data driven decision making, you are eager to build business and value chain acumen in a global healthcare company. You thrive in collaborative environments, communicate effectively with diverse stakeholders, and bring a team player mindset to everything you do. You adapt quickly, embrace new challenges, and demonstrate the drive and eagerness to continuously learn, experiment, and grow. Above all, you are motivated by creating meaningful impact for patients and consumers and inspired by our ambition to bring lasting health to millions more people around the world.

In addition to your personal qualifications, you have:

  • A master’s degree from 2026 or 2027 in a relevant field, for example health economics, public health or outcomes research. Ideally complemented by a degree or extra courses in business, finance or AI.
  • No more than 1 year of full-time work experience.
  • International experience from studies abroad or internships.
  • Relevant experience from internships, student jobs or extracurricular activities.
  • International mindset and are globally mobile.
  • Professional fluency in English.

You are welcome to apply for more than one track. However, we recommend you to carefully consider which tracks you will apply for and your motivation for doing so. You will have to make an individual application for each programme track and we encourage you to only apply for the tracks that you would be truly excited to join.

Be yourself and share why Novo Nordisk is the company you want to work for. What motivates you and why do you think being a graduate could be amazing. We would like to know who YOU are.

No, our corporate language is English, so speaking Danish is definitely not a requirement. There may be local language requirements for some International Operations (IO) tracks.

Yes, as long as you plan to graduate before the start of the Graduate programme. It is also accepted if you have not received your official graduate diploma before starting in the Graduate Programme, as long as you have finished your studies and are just waiting for the official papers.

This position is designed as an entry-level role, and while many graduates join the program directly after their studies, we also consider candidates with up to one year of post-graduate experience.

Previous pharmaceutical work experience is not a requirement to apply for the programme.

For the Global tracks you will be employed by our HQ organisation and most of the positions will start in Denmark, except for Global Tax, where you will commence your rotations in either Denmark, US or in one of our International Operations locations globally.

For the International Operations tracks you will be employed in one of our specified hiring countries for 2026, where you will undertake your first rotation.

Upon successful completion of the programme, you will be offered a position in Novo Nordisk, therefore full mobility and flexibility is required as the location is not pre-determined.
