PART TIME

October 11, 2024

Calling on Head of Communications
At Maersk Tankers, our purpose is to pioneer shipping solutions for our partners and the planet. We believe in the power of diversity and inclusion to make this happen, including providing equal opportunities for all. We offer a global and flexible workplace where passion and engagement are met with opportunities to pioneer professional and personal development.

Your opportunity to join the adventure
In the CEO Office, you will join a team of 3 talented and welcoming colleagues.

We are seeking an experienced and strategic Head of Communications to join our team. This role offers the flexibility of a part-time position, with a commitment of 25 hours per week. The ideal candidate will have at least 7-10 years of experience as an executive advisor, specializing in communication strategies that align with business priorities. As an individual contributor with no dedicated communications team, this role requires a blend of strategic thinking and practical execution, with the ability to be both hands-on and self-motivated. Experience in international organizations - whether privately owned, publicly listed, or within PR agencies advising C-level executives and collaborating with key stakeholders - is desirable.

The role demands a proven ability to develop and implement long-term communication strategies that facilitate organizational change and support business goals. The ideal candidate will be skilled in preparing key messaging, presentations, speeches, press releases, and other communication materials for senior leaders and will oversee internal and external communication strategies to ensure they effectively reflect our business goals and sustain media relations.

Key responsibilities:
  • Strategic communication advisory: Provide expert communication advice to the CEO and executive leadership, ensuring alignment with the company’s strategic priorities and reinforcement of business goals
  • Strategy development & execution: Develop and implement long-term communication strategies to support business goals and drive organizational transformation. This includes crafting key messaging, social media content, presentations, speeches, press releases, and other communication materials for senior leaders to ensure clear and consistent communication
  • Internal & external communication: Design and implement internal communication strategies to enhance organisational engagement and foster a positive organizational culture. Build and maintain robust relationships with external stakeholders and navigate media engagements effectively
  • Crisis management: Develop and deliver timely communication strategies and responses during urgent or high-pressure scenarios


Are you part of the solution?

At Maersk Tankers, you can come as you are and be among people who will expand your horizon. As our new Head of Communications, we do, however, expect that you can contribute with the following:
  • Professional experience: Minimum of 7-10 years in a senior communication role, ideally within international organizations or large PR agencies with direct contact with senior executives
  • Executive advisory: Proven history of providing strategic communication counsel to CEOs and senior leadership
  • Strategic and practical skills: Expertise in aligning both strategic and hands-on communication efforts with organizational objectives
  • Content creation: Extensive experience in developing key messaging, social media content, presentations, speeches, press releases, and other communication materials for senior leadership
  • Language skills: Proficiency in Danish and English both verbally and in writing, with the ability to communicate clearly and effectively in all contexts
  • Stakeholder relations: Demonstrated ability to build and maintain relationships with internal and external stakeholders at all levels, with an understanding of broader business contexts
  • Personal attributes: Motivated, proactive, and strategic thinker with business understanding. Capable of addressing both opportunities and challenges with confidence
  • Flexibility: Ability to adapt and be available outside regular hours for crisis communication and issues management, with some travel to Maersk Tankers regions expected
We offer a collaborative work environment where you will have the opportunity to shape and influence communication strategies that support our business goals and enhance our global presence. We are committed to innovative solutions, operational excellence, and a clear focus on safety and sustainability. As a member of our team, you will contribute to impactful communication strategies in a role that is both strategic and hands-on.
