Platform Product Owner, Procure-to-Pay Platforms
Have you delivered measurable business impact through AI and automation - and want to do it at a scale most product managers never get near?
We are looking for a Platform Product Owner with a proven track record in AI and automation delivery to join the Procure-to-Pay (P2P) Platforms team at A.P. Moller - Maersk - one of the world's largest integrated logistics companies, operating across 130 countries.
This is a product management role with real ownership, not a Scrum coordination position. You will shape platform direction, drive an active AI and automation agenda, and help transform how cost and risk are managed across a global operation.
The Opportunity
Procure-to-Pay is a strategic priority at Maersk - spanning the end-to-end process from purchase order creation through invoice validation and dispute handling. AI and automation are not on the horizon here; they are already in flight. We are running live pilots in invoice scanning and OCR, intelligent exception handling, and AI-enabled development - and we need a PM who can turn early traction into scaled, measurable outcomes.
The platforms underpinning this process are in active development, with significant greenfield scope and a direct line to senior leadership. The problems are large, the stakeholders have strong opinions, and the decisions you make will have measurable impact on cost and operational efficiency at enterprise scale.
This role suits someone who is at least 5 into a product career, has shipped AI or automation products and can point to the business results, and is ready to apply that experience in a more complex, higher-stakes environment than they've worked in before.
What You Will Do
Your work will fall across three areas:
Platform strategy and direction
Shape product vision, priorities, and roadmaps across the P2P platform ecosystem
Lead discovery with users, process owners, and UX to surface opportunities and inform decisions
Balance user experience, business value, technical constraints, risk, and compliance
Delivery and execution
Translate business needs into clear requirements and a well-groomed backlog
Work closely with engineering, UX, data, and architecture teams to deliver and iterate
Drive initiatives that improve efficiency, automation, data quality, and control
Drive AI and automation workstreams within P2P - translating live pilots into scaled outcomes with clear business metrics
Stakeholder alignment and communication
Operate across a challenging landscape of Finance, Procurement, Operations, and Technology - each with competing priorities and strong views
Communicate trade-offs clearly and build alignment with senior stakeholders who are not always aligned
Use data and narrative to report progress and outcomes in a way that lands with both technical and business audiences
What We're Looking For
Essential:
5+ years in product management in complex or multi-stakeholder environments
A demonstrable track record of delivering business impact through AI or automation - you can point to what shipped, at what scale, and what it changed
Strong structured thinking and a data-driven approach to decisions and prioritisation
Proven ability to influence without authority and build alignment across competing priorities - this is central to the role
Exceptional communication skills, including translating between technical and non-technical audiences and presenting confidently to senior stakeholders
Experience working with engineering teams in Agile environments
Appetite for greenfield scope and comfort operating without a complete playbook
Helpful, but not required:
Exposure to Procure-to-Pay, Procurement, Finance, ERP ecosystems, invoicing, or compliance
Background in shipping, logistics, or similarly complex operational environments
If you meet most - but not all - of these criteria, we encourage you to apply.
Working Here
This role is based full-time at our offices in Copenhagen. You will be part of a small, experienced PM team and work within a broader cross-functional organisation spanning Tech, Finance, Operations and Procurement.
The P2P function has executive sponsorship and is one of Maersk's identified operational priorities. You will have access to real data, real decisions, and real consequences - which is what makes it interesting.
