Meet our very first Graduate in the COP Graduate Program

Copenhagen Offshore Partners consists of highly dedicated experts, most of whom have 10+ years of experience from developing and constructing large-scale offshore wind projects. We have a diverse workforce and therefore also employ student assistants. Why? We believe young talent can challenge and inspire, and add value on many different levels. When they have completed their studies, some of them join the team in a permanent role. In the course of the next weeks we’d like you to get to know them, starting this week with a very special young professional, namely COP’s very first Analyst in the company’s Graduate Program.

Louise Dournon, MSc in Industrial Engineering & Management at DTU and MSc General Engineering at Ecole Centrale de Lyon (France), Analyst on the Graduate Program

“I’m looking forward to working with other profiles, both culturally and technically.”

Louise joined our new graduate program in September. The 18-month program gives her the opportunity to rotate between three different departments as well as to work in a different COP location. 

“I did a gap year in the medical industry before moving to Denmark, but I realized then I wanted to work for a company whose core activities were related to environmental sustainability, preferably in the energy industry. I also favored corporate functions over technical jobs. I was very fortunate to find all this and more in my student position as a Junior BI Analyst in COP. My primary task has been to develop and implement data management and reporting tools, like apps and databases. I’ve worked with functions throughout the whole organization like PMO, Finance, and HR. I’ve also been involved in reporting processes between projects and Executive Management. The next step is to dive deeper into the value chain and study practices from Procurement, Business Case, Market Assessment, etc.”

In her spare time, Louise enjoys exploring the city with friends, going to dance shows, and doing yoga. She knits and reads and hopes to learn Danish too.
