It's difficult landing government jobs w/o knowing Danish, especially when it comes to HR. You will also need to exceed a specific income limit in order to apply to work in Denmark (which is higher than the median salary) (You can read more here) https://www.nyidanmark.dk/

UK immigrants have the exact same rules to apply for as non-westerners, unless you moved to Denmark during the Brexit window.

It's also extremely difficult finding 4 day work weeks in Education and often it's full time after the school reform.

Learning Danish and taking the Danish exam is also a requirement in order to gain permanent residency. (it's cheap to sign up for language classes, about 2k dkk) and is highly recommended if you want a life here.

Denmark has some of the strictest immigration rules in Europe; even during the Brexit window it was complicated and difficult moving here - but landing jobs will definitely help; if the employer can hire you and help with relocation.

Otherwise you can easily end up in a chicken & egg situation, where immigrants such as yourself, can't be approved for a job without a CPR number, but you can't move here and get a CPR number w/o a job.

I would look outside of your desired skillsets and aim for some of the largest private companies, as they are dealing with immigration much more and can potentially help with relocation. I do not expect the public sector to do that well at all.

But life is so much easier and more affordable here than Britain. Many things are way way cheaper, such as phone, internet, housing, so it's worth to definitely try - but it won't be easy.
