AP3’s assignments and large fund capital and almost 75 employees in combination with our way of working and quick decision-making processes lead to the fund being both an attractive investment partner and employer. AP3 offers a stimulating and truly professional work environment with high demands, great personal responsibility and a breadth of tasks and contact areas.

Every employee is important for the assignment

The fund is characterized by the global, diversified and professional asset management performed here. AP3 is a knowledge-intensive organization where each employee is given a broad and responsible role and where each employee’s collective experience and knowledge is important for the fund’s results. AP3 sets high standards as an employer and at the same time works to promote a good work/life balance. We emphasize a great corporate culture and a work environment where employees can develop, be well acknowledged and thrive.
