Our Work Environment

Demant Enterprise A/S in Ballerup is our Centre of Excellence regarding automated production using the latest surface mount technologies (SMT). New assemblies are frequently released, e.g., for Oticon’s latest hearing aids and consequently new production equipment and technologies are necessary.

You will communicate, cooperate, and collaborate with different people, mainly internal colleagues from other teams, but also from other Demant locations and external partners. Occasional travelling is part of the job.

You will work in a smaller department with high flexibility – and at the same time be a part of a large organization.

The team uses advance and modern methods to deliver production technologies for the benefit of product projects, production capability, and, ultimately, the hearing-impaired customer.

Be part of a great team and organization
