Orifarm provides access to high-quality, affordable healthcare solutions addressing multiple therapeutic needs by providing innovative medicines, niche generics and trusted over-the-counter brands. With activities across markets, cultures, and regulatory environments, hiring international talent is closely tied to the company’s identity and seen as a natural extension of its role in actively supporting the development of international talent in Denmark.
With more than 70 student assistants, Orifarm experiences that international students bring new perspectives, language skills, and a global mindset that aligns with the company’s way of working. Opening the door to international students is therefore both a values driven and strategic choice.
Student positions at Orifarm are typically built around tasks that require continuity and longer, coherent working hours. For that reason, the company works with contracts of at least eight hours per week, ideally 15–20 hours. This requires flexibility from the students — for example, being able to work on study free days or deliver longer work blocks when tasks demand it.
These student roles also serve as an important first step in building a strong talent pipeline. A student job provides an opportunity to get to know each other in practice: students gain insight into Orifarm’s culture, workflows, and professional environment, while the company gets the chance to identify potential and develop competencies over time. In this way, student jobs function as a preparatory phase where highly motivated and capable students can become natural candidates for full time positions once they graduate. This creates both continuity and quality in recruitment.
