The posting

Job title - Employee/Labor Relations Specialist

Location - Shah Alam Selangor (Kuala Lumpa) Malaysia

Role type – Permanent, office/site based 5 days per week

At Maersk, we're transforming the future of logistics, and we're looking for an experienced Employee Relations Specialist to help build a resilient, engaged, and high-performing workforce across our operations in Malaysia and wider region.

This is a strategic and hands-on role where you'll partner closely with business leaders, People Business Partners, and operational teams to deliver expert employee and labor relations support across Contract Logistics and other operational environments. You'll play a key role in ensuring business continuity, managing workforce risks, supporting organisational change, and fostering positive relationships with employees and representative bodies.

What You'll Do

As a trusted advisor, you will:

  • Provide expert guidance on complex employee and labor relations matters, employment law, investigations, grievances, disciplinary cases, and disputes.
  • Partner with business leaders to identify and mitigate workforce and labor relations risks.
  • Lead engagement with unions, works councils, and employee representatives, supporting consultations, negotiations, and collective bargaining activities.
  • Support organisational change, restructures, start-ups, site expansions, and workforce transformation initiatives.
  • Build leadership capability by coaching managers on employee relations best practices, conflict resolution, and workforce engagement.
  • Drive responsible labor standards and governance across both directly employed and third-party labor populations.

Key Areas of Impact

In this role, it will be critical that you:

  • Keep business leaders appraised of evolving labor standards, employee relations trends, and critical industry-relevant legislative updates.
  • Lead or manage the escalation of material employment and labour relations risks, including business continuity planning and crisis management activities in partnership with regional and global stakeholders.

What We're Looking For

  • 7-10+ years' experience in Employee Relations, Labor Relations, Employment Law, or Industrial Relations.
  • Strong knowledge of local employment and labor law.
  • Experience working with unions, works councils, and employee representative bodies.
  • Proven background supporting frontline, operational, blue-collar, or site-based workforces within logistics, warehousing, manufacturing, transportation, or similarly labor-intensive industries.
  • Excellent stakeholder management, influencing, and communication skills.
  • Ability to balance legal, operational, people, and commercial considerations in a fast-paced business environment.

Why Maersk?

Join a global organisation where your expertise will directly influence business success, employee experience, and workforce stability. You'll work alongside talented colleagues across a highly collaborative international network while helping shape the future of employee relations in one of the world's leading logistics companies.

Why it works

3×

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.
