Job Description

Maersk is a global leader in integrated logistics and have been industry pioneers for over a century. Through innovation and transformation we are redefining the boundaries of possibility, continuously setting new standards for efficiency, sustainability, and excellence.

Shape the Future of Energy in Global Logistics...

We’re transforming global logistics and driving the transition to sustainable energy solutions. As a Finance Partner supporting Maersk Energy Markets (MEM), you’ll play a key role in enabling data-driven decisions, ensuring financial transparency, and supporting the journey toward decarbonising our operations.

This is an exciting opportunity to work at the intersection of energy trading, green fuels, and cross-functional business strategy—directly contributing to Maersk’s Energy Transition agenda.

In this role, you will:

  • Lead the MEM financial performance management framework across MPR, budget, ROFO, and business planning cycles.

  • Set and track trading performance targets—challenging assumptions and aligning stakeholders on clear, ambitious goals.

  • Optimize planning for secondary costs and SG&A within MEM and Energy Transition functions.

  • Support strategic decision-making with robust financial modelling and insights.

  • Enhance financial data foundations by collaborating with platform teams to improve accuracy, scalability, and governance.

  • Own the financial lifecycle of EU Allowances (EUAs), including demand forecasting, sourcing, settlement, and P&L recovery.

  • Facilitate green fuel volume and cost allocations across MEM and Ocean, aligning with both value protection and sustainability goals.

  • Maintain MEM transfer pricing documentation and manage internal revenue and cost allocations.

What We're Looking For

  • Qualified accountant (ACCA, ACA, CIMA, or equivalent).

  • Experience in energy trading, performance management, and financial processes.

  • Strong financial modelling skills to support business insights and strategic decisions.

  • Knowledge of shipping fuels—both fossil and green—and their commercial impact.

Who You Are

  • You drive results with a continuous improvement mindset.

  • You influence without formal authority and build trusted partnerships.

  • You collaborate across functions and thrive in a fast-evolving environment.
