The Denmark-based firm said it is seeking candidates who identify with its core values of respect, ambition, curiosity, and what it describes as “smile & joy.”

The MOST programme offers placements across Monjasa’s international office network, including locations in Singapore, Shanghai, Tokyo, Fredericia, Panama, Athens, Houston, and New York.
