• Act as a key point of contact between the GSC and stakeholders across Sales, Customer Success, Pricing, Product and Operations. 

• Oversee transactional and commercial sales support processes, resolve issues, remove barriers and help the team deliver a seamless customer journey. 

• Use data, insights and market feedback to improve team performance, customer outcomes and service delivery. 

• Lead process improvements, system changes, standardisation initiatives and broader transformation activity. 

• Support organisational change and help establish the Warsaw team as a trusted and high-performing business partner. 

• Create a psychologically safe, engaging environment where people can thrive, grow and perform at their best. 

What we are looking for

• Commercial awareness and a customer-first mindset. 

• Confidence working in a fast-paced, evolving environment where priorities can shift quickly. 

• Logistics, supply chain or global trade experience would be an advantage, but is not essential. 

Why join Maersk? 

• Lead a newly established team in a business-critical transformation programme. 

• Have visible impact from day one in a role with strong stakeholder exposure. 

• Join a global organisation with clear long-term ambitions and international career opportunities.
