WHY WORK AT JOE & THE JUICE

JOE & THE JUICE is a people centric food and beverage company built around culture, not just juice, sandwiches, coffee, and much more. When joining us, you step into a high energy community where the music is loud, the bar is your stage, and your personality matters as much as your skills.

We believe in four simple virtues that shape everything we do:

• Positive Attitude
• Inclusion
• Social Ties
• Growth

For us, this means that when you choose a cup half-full mindset and welcome people form every background, build real friendships across the bar by creating great guest experiences, and use every shift as a chance to learn something new, you become more than just a juicer; like us, you continue to search and mind purpose and meaning in what you do.

From your first day, you’ll be part of an international network of juicers who support each other, celebrate wins together, and push each other to grow. You will learn by doing, move through a clear Moneyball career path, and be part of a company where most leaders have earned their stripes behind the bar (fun fact: over 75% of our employees started as Juicers!).  

If you love fast paced service, music, people, and the idea of turning a job into a lifestyle, JOE can become a place to build skills, friendships, and a career that can take you across cities, countries, and roles.

Your Mission 

Join our Risk, Compliance & Safety team as Senior Risk & Compliance Associate and help build the governance infrastructure that keeps a fast-growing, international F&B company resilient. Your two primary focus areas are enterprise risk management and insurance management — while also contributing to business continuity, data privacy, and third-party risk. Based in Copenhagen, you will work closely with our Global Risk & Resilience Manager and collaborate with stakeholders across all our countries of operation. 

Key Responsibilities 

• Maintain the ERM framework and own the risk register lifecycle end-to-end — data quality, scoring, ownership, and remediation tracking 

• Act as a sparring partner for business units throughout the full ERM cycle — from risk identification to treatment and review 

• Support insurance renewals — preparing data packs, coordinating inputs, and maintaining the insurance register 

• Track claims, coverage gaps, and premium benchmarks, acting as the coordination point between the business and external brokers 

• Support development and testing of Business Continuity Plans across key functions and geographies 

• Contribute to GDPR compliance activities including RoPA maintenance, DPIAs, and DPA tracking 

• Execute third-party due diligence processes and maintain due diligence registers 

• Prepare risk reporting for senior management and governance bodies, turning data into clear, actionable insights 
• Contribute to the development and maintenance of risk and compliance policies, ensuring they are current, clearly written, and embedded in practice across the business 

Who You Are 

You build things that hold up under real pressure — not just in a presentation. You are structured, analytically sharp, and proactive. You take ownership of complex frameworks, manage multiple workstreams independently, and communicate clearly across functions, seniority levels, and geographies. You thrive in complexity, take the detail seriously, and know how to translate risk into language that drives decisions at the executive level. 

What You'll Bring 

• 5+ years of experience in GRC, risk management, or a closely related field 

• Hands-on experience with ERM frameworks — risk registers, KRIs, risk appetite, and governance reporting 

• Experience with insurance management or renewal processes is a strong advantage 

• Familiarity with ISO 31000, COSO ERM, or similar methodologies 

• BCM, GDPR, or third-party risk experience is a plus 

• Advanced Excel and experience with GRC or ERM tools (e.g. Diligent, EQS) 

• Professional fluency in English; experience in a multi-country environment preferred 

• Power BI or equivalent data visualisation tool experience is an advantage 

• Familiarity with AI tools — including Claude — for productivity, analysis, and process automation is a plus

We invest heavily in internal development through our Moneyball career system and a culture where most leaders, including C-suite, VPs, and directors, have started behind the bar.
