Asset Management Integration Lead

APM Terminals

At APM Terminals, a global leader in port and terminal operations, we enable global trade and drive sustainable growth. What drives us forward is a mindset of always improving — observing how work happens, identifying what creates value, and removing what gets in the way. We constantly look for smarter, simpler, and safer ways of operating. If you thrive in environments where people value learning and are committed to continuously improve daily operations, join us and be apart of our journey.

Working closely with operational teams and external partners, you will help ensure business continuity while enabling long-term operational excellence.

Location: Onsite in Bremerhaven, Germany.
