About Maersk

At Maersk, we’re transforming global supply chains through end-to-end integrated logistics. As a global leader in connecting and simplifying trade, we help businesses move goods seamlessly across ocean, air, landside transportation, and warehousing, all supported by cutting edge technology and an extensive global network.

We’re committed to building an inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued, heard, and able to be themselves. Our team members come from a wide range of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, and we value the unique strengths each person contributes. With over 100,000 employees across 130 countries, we work together to shape the future of global trade and logistics.

About the role

As a Business Development Manager within Maersk Project Logistics, you will take on a high-visibility commercial role supporting the rapidly growing Battery Energy Storage Systems sector. You will serve as a commercial and industry subject-matter expert, developing complex logistics opportunities, strengthening a major strategic customer relationship, and helping shape tailored project logistics solutions. Working across commercial, solution design, operations, customer service, and product teams, you will lead strategic discussions, support bids and proposals, and help expand Maersk’s presence within the broader BESS market.

What We offer

This is an exciting career opportunity to work in a truly international company that makes global trade happen. You will be interacting daily with passionate colleagues around the world, giving you the opportunity to develop your professional skills in a global environment. Through the training and support we provide and learning on the job, you will have the chance to truly take your career all the way.

  • Collaborate with global project logistics, solution design, operational, and commercial teams on complex customer opportunities.
  • Contribute to strategic requests for information, quotations, and proposals for high-value logistics solutions.
  • Gain exposure to major energy, engineering, and industrial projects across global markets.
  • Access ongoing learning, knowledge sharing, and professional development across Maersk’s international logistics network.
  • Receive health insurance, paid time off, and a 401(k) plan with company match as a full-time employee.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Serve as the primary commercial contact for a major strategic customer, managing relationships, escalations, and senior-level discussions.
  • Drive proactive business development by identifying opportunities to expand the strategic account and broader BESS portfolio.
  • Coordinate with commercial, solution design, operations, customer service, and product teams to address customer requirements.
  • Manage account performance, rate development, pricing discussions, and commercially viable solution-development activities.
  • Lead or support RFI, RFQ, and RFP processes, ensuring proposals are comprehensive, competitive, and aligned with customer needs.
  • Review customer contracts and commercial requirements for alignment with product standards and operational capabilities.
  • Represent the voice of the customer by providing market intelligence and feedback that support product development and continuous improvement.

Who we are looking for:

We recognize that experience comes in many forms. If you don’t meet every qualification, we still encourage you to apply.

  • Bring five or more years of experience in project logistics, BESS, or a closely related industry.
  • Demonstrate strong knowledge of BESS supply chains, project cargo operations, and specialized logistics solutions.
  • Show successful business development and strategic key-account management experience within logistics or supply chain.
  • Apply strong commercial acumen across solution-based selling, account development, pricing, financial analysis, and contract review.
  • Communicate clearly and confidently with operational stakeholders, cross-functional teams, and senior customer executives.
  • Present complex logistics solutions in a concise, professional, and customer-focused manner.
  • Influence and lead cross-functional stakeholders without direct authority while maintaining a proactive, relationship-growth mindset.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
