Electrical Package Lead

North Sea Terminal Bremerhaven (NTB) Transformation Project

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 a part of our journey.

APM Terminals and Eurogate have entered into an agreement for a long-term partnership to invest approximately €1 billion in the modernisation of the North Sea Terminal Bremerhaven, subject to relevant approvals. The transformation is expected to include significant investment in equipment, infrastructure and systems, alongside the integration of the terminal into the APM Terminals global network.

Electrification and renewable energy will be central to the project, supporting the ambition to operate with zero greenhouse gas emissions. As Electrical Package Lead, you will help deliver the electrical infrastructure required to create an efficient, resilient and future-ready terminal.

Location: Bremerhaven, Germany
