Jobs in Denmark for UK Citizens

Working in Denmark as a UK Citizen After Brexit

Since Brexit, UK citizens are treated as non-EU nationals in Denmark: unless you're covered by the Withdrawal Agreement (i.e., you were already resident in Denmark before 2021), you now need a work and residence permit before starting a job.

The practical route is a job offer first — your employer then sponsors the permit through the Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration (SIRI). Most British professionals qualify via the Pay Limit Scheme (salary above ~DKK 465,000/year), the Positive List for in-demand professions, or the Fast-track Scheme at certified companies. Processing typically takes 1–4 months.

The upside: English-language roles are everywhere in Danish tech, engineering, life sciences, and shipping. Browse the listings below — every job is posted in English.
