Jeg har modtaget nogle spørgsmål fra jer, som jeg meget gerne vil svare på. Jeg kommer med et svar af gangen, der jeg gerne vil gå så meget i dybden med det, som jeg kan, uden at gøre det til en hel roman. Så her får i det første svar til det første spørgsmål:

Hvad arbejder de fleste med?

Selvfølgelig er der mange, der arbejder indenfor det offentlige. Ofte kommer danskere hertil, fordi de her fået et job i Selvstyret, ved politiet eller ved retten i Grønland. Men vi har også rigtig mange i den private sektor – både danskere og grønlændere. Der er rigtig mange private firmaer og fonde – og der er stor fokus på at udvikle iværksætteriet heroppe lige nu.

Vi har en masse service firmaer, der leverer en bred vifte af servicer som fx transport, autoreparation, rengøring og meget andet. Der er både små og store firmaer, men for det meste er det mindre firmaer, som mere eller mindre sidder alene på posten. Derudover er der en masse jobs indenfor den private sektor i rådgivning, landbaserede erhverv, handel og vedligeholdelse og renovering. Fiskeri er økonomisk set det mest dominerende erhverv, men med kun omkring 2500 ansatte.

De fleste fuldtidsbeskæftigede i Grønland er altså ansat indenfor det offentlige, men det private vokser mere og mere. Grønland er, som nævnt før, et land med mange muligheder. I og med at landet ikke er ligeså udviklet som fx Danmark, er der stor mulighed for at starte sit eget. Oftest finder du ikke mange konkurrenter indenfor det, du gerne vil starte. Når det så er sagt, skal det også siges, at der i forvejen allerede findes nogle super seje iværksættere heroppe, men det kan aldrig skade med flere, der går efter sine drømme. Det gælder jo alle steder.

Min kæreste, Martin, har fx selv startet hans eget mediefirma. Han leverer nu reklamer, kort film, Facebook optimering, hjemmesider og meget mere til nogle af de største firmaer og foreninger i Grønland. Alt kan lade sig gøre, hvis man virkelig vil det. Det gælder alle steder i verden.

Jeg håber, at det var svar nok. Ellers er i meget velkommen til at skrive, hvis i har yderligere spørgsmål eller hvis i har tilføjelser 🙂 Ha’ en dejlig dag <3

//ENGLISH//

I have received some questions from you, that I would like to answer. I will bring one question and answer at a time, so I really can elaborate for you, without turning it into a novel. So here is the first response to the first question:

What do most people work with?
Of course there are many who work within the public sector. Danish people often come here, because they get a job within the PA, the police or the courts of Greenland. But we also have many in the private sector – both Danes and Greenlanders. There are many private companies and foundations – and there is great focus on developing entrepreneurship here right now.

We have a lot of service companies that provide a variety of services such as transport, auto repair, cleaning and much more. There are small and large companies, but mostly it’s small business, which more or less are sitting alone on the record. Additionally, there are a lot of jobs in the private sector within counseling, land-based business, commerce and maintenance and renovation. Fishing is economically the most dominant industry, but with only about 2500 employees.

Most full-time employees in Greenland are thus employed in the public sector, but the private sector is growing. Greenland is, as mentioned before, a country with a lot of opportunities. Given that the country is not as developed, such as Denmark, there is a great opportunity to start up your own. Usually you won’t find many competitors within your field. That being said, it must also be said that there already are some super cool entrepreneurs up here, but it can never hurt to have some more people pursuing their dreams. And that goes for everywhere.

My boyfriend, Martin, for example, has started his own media company. He now delivers advertising, short films, Facebook optimization, web sites and much more for some of the largest companies and associations in Greenland. Everything is possible if you really want it. This applies to all parts of the world.
I hope it was answer enough. Otherwise you are very welcome to write to me if you have further questions or if you have additions to what I have written 🙂 Have a nice day <3
