Trainee at Mystery Makers®
Get a different kind of apprenticeship in a strong and ambitious community
At Mystery Makers, we're looking for a student who wants to be part of the teamwork movement. We're looking for someone who believes that through play and learning we can learn about each other and the world around us.
We're nerds - and we're proud of it
You will be part of a group of curious nerds who have been creating award-winning experiences at home and abroad since 2010. We have won the Creative Business Cup for our Mystery Hunt® concept, which today can be found in the largest museums and attractions in Denmark and Austria. In 2014, we opened the first Scandinavian escape room, which today has developed into an entire industry. In 2023, like Tivoli and Lego House, we became finalists in the competition to be 'Denmark's Best Experience'.
Kickstart your career in Kbh K
As a trainee at Mystery Makers, you'll be a central part of the day-to-day operations at our office in Copenhagen K. You will get a versatile education by trying out the different departments. This will give you the opportunity to put your theoretical knowledge into practice and prepare you for the business world. We offer training in sales techniques, inventory management and event management, among other things.
More specifically, the student's work tasks:
1. customer contact: Our customers are primarily large Danish companies. You will be trained to communicate and sell to both businesses and private individuals when communicating with customers in our booking department.

3. Event coordination: We are an ambitious team, but at the same time we like to celebrate everyday life and organise internal social events to strengthen the team. The trainee is responsible for idealisation, coordination and procurement for such events.
