Job Description

\n

Head of Sales - Ireland Lead the market. Shape how customers grow. Maersk is on a journey to become the global integrator of logistics, connecting and simplifying our customers' supply chains through truly integrated solutions.

To succeed, we need leaders who can bring together our full product portfolio, build strong customer relationships, and create growth opportunities across the business.

\n

As Head of Sales (Country Representative) for Ireland, you will lead our commercial agenda in the market, driving profitable growth across all Maersk products and solutions while acting as the senior country representative across functions. This is a high-impact leadership role, balancing strategic direction, commercial execution, and organisational leadership to deliver value for customers and Maersk alike.

The Role\n

As Head of Sales Ireland, you will own the commercial agenda end to end — shaping strategy, leading execution and building a high-performing sales organisation aligned with Maersk’s integrator ambition.

It’s about leading transformation: moving from siloed selling to integrated, value-based solutions; from volume focus to profitable growth; and from individual performance to collective, customer-centric impact.

You will act as both strategic architect and hands-on leader — engaging senior customers and suppliers, empowering teams, and ensuring disciplined execution across markets, segments, and industries. We're flexible on working location within Ireland. The successful candidate should be comfortable travelling regularly to meet customers and be able to attend our Dublin office as business needs require.
