About the role

At Maersk, keeping our global fleet operating safely and reliably depends on a highly effective, resilient and globally connected supply chain.

We are looking for an accomplished Global Head of Logistics, Ocean Asset Partnership to lead the end-to-end supply chain supporting our fleet of 300+ vessels worldwide.

This is one of the most significant leadership roles within Ocean Asset Partnerships. You will lead a global organisation of 69 colleagues, including nine direct reports, with responsibility for the teams that purchase what our vessels need, move materials through our global warehouse and logistics network, and ultimately ensure they reach our vessels wherever they operate.

The environment is operationally complex and highly interconnected. Success requires a leader who understands how to orchestrate purchasing, warehousing, transportation, freight forwarding, last-mile delivery and vessel supply as one end-to-end supply chain.

Reporting to the Global Head of Ocean Asset Partnership, you will combine strategic leadership with strong operational execution across supply chain, logistics, procurement, technology and fleet operations.

What is essential for this role

Two things are critical for success in this role:

• Large-scale people leadership: A proven track record of leading and developing large, geographically distributed teams, including leading other leaders.
• Deep Supply Chain & Logistics expertise: Significant experience managing complex, end-to-end supply chains, covering purchasing, warehousing, transportation, freight forwarding and final delivery.

This role requires operational Supply Chain and Logistics leadership beyond procurement or category management. Candidates with predominantly procurement experience, without significant Supply Chain and Logistics depth, are unlikely to be the right fit.

Key responsibilities

• Lead the global marine supply chain: Define and execute the global supply chain strategy supporting Maersk's fleet of 300+ vessels.
• Lead the end-to-end flow of materials, from purchasing through warehousing and transportation to final vessel delivery.
• Ensure vessels and crews receive critical materials and spare parts safely and on time.
• Build supply chain resilience and maintain 24/7 continuity and crisis-response capabilities.
• Continuously improve requisition-to-vessel delivery performance while managing operational and supplier risk.
• Lead a significant global organisation: Lead, develop and engage a global organisation.
• Build strong leadership capability throughout the organisation and empower leaders to deliver through their teams.
• Create clear accountability across purchasing, supply chain and logistics operations.
• Build a high-performance culture centred around safety, service, collaboration, continuous improvement and ownership.
• Drive global logistics and warehousing: Own the global Warehousing & Logistics category and its associated operating model; oversee approximately USD 18-20 million in annual logistics spend; manage relationships and performance across 3PL providers, freight forwarders and last-mile partners; coordinate air freight requirements with Maersk's commercial organisation and collaborate across sea freight and last-mile services; drive reliability, resilience and cost leadership across the logistics network.
• Strengthen supplier partnerships and resilience: Build strategic relationships with key marine suppliers and logistics partners; diversify the supplier base where appropriate to reduce dependency and strengthen resilience; drive supplier performance while balancing service, quality, cost and operational continuity; position Maersk as a customer of choice with strategically important suppliers.
• Transform through technology and data: Lead the development and implementation of technology supporting supply chain and logistics, including ERP and AI-enabled solutions; improve end-to-end visibility, planning and decision-making through technology and data; identify opportunities to simplify and automate processes across the supply chain.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for an experienced senior leader who brings:

• Essential experience: Proven experience leading large, complex and geographically distributed organisations, preferably including leadership of other leaders.
• Significant Supply Chain and Logistics leadership experience, with direct exposure to end-to-end operational supply chains.
• Strong understanding of warehousing, transportation, freight forwarding, 3PL operations and last-mile delivery.
• Experience operating in a complex, global and operationally critical environment, such as maritime, logistics, manufacturing, industrial, aviation, energy or another asset-intensive sector.
• Demonstrated ability to manage supply chain continuity, operational risk and service reliability at scale.
• Strong senior stakeholder management and the ability to influence across organisational boundaries.
• Strong commercial and financial acumen.
