Learning Experience Designer/Product Owner

Opportunity

Be responsible for the design and oversight of learning and performance enabling products helping to transform Maersk to be the leader in integrated-container logistics. We are looking for L&D professionals in several areas including Leadership Development, Finance Upskilling, Onboarding, Integrated Supply Chain Upskilling, and Technology Upskilling.

WE OFFER
As a Learning Experience Designer/Product Owner, you will join our Talent & Development team - a critical part of the People Function driving capability development at the heart of the company strategy. Maersk is leading the industry in an ambitious strategy to decarbonize logistics, with early starts in zero-carbon ship design, biofuels, and a roadmap that will see Maersk carbon-neutral by 2040. With an ambitious new People Strategy, you can be part of the transformation of a function bringing enormous value to a company that is leading the effort to build an wonderful environment for people to be their very best.

One of the key priorities of the People Function is to build trust and robust partnerships with critical stakeholders, collaborate closely to identify current and future needs, building a learning product map, and design effective solutions that enable us to deliver business results and win as a team.

You will lead and be responsible for ensuring effective design, development, and oversight of business-critical, sustainable L&D programs, performance supports, and interventions. You will have an incredible opportunity to showcase your ability to leverage innovative learning modalities to uplift workforce capability. You will stretch your capabilities by learning from, sparring with, and building lasting relationships with diverse and professional colleagues.

You thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment with a range of stakeholders and colleagues across our global organisation. And – you are someone who wants to be part of doing great work to make the world a better place.

The location is flexible within Europe with an option to WFH or hybrid at a location where Maersk has an office.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Your responsibilities will include the following, amongst others:

• Lead the creation of scalable, effective learning and performance-improvement products using appropriate methodologies, tools, and platforms.

• Act as a product owner for selected L&D solutions – this involves design, setting the solution up for sustainable and scalable deployment, iterating and improving, and sunsetting the solution as required.

• Wherever possible, leverage enterprise tools, licenses, platforms, preferred suppliers, measurement methodologies, and standards in the development of solutions.

• Ensure excellent communication, teamwork, and alignment with key stakeholders, developing a curriculum and acting as a trusted partner. This includes using your expertise to recommend when a learning solution is not the right answer to solving a business performance improvement challenge.

• Spar actively with team members and stakeholders to define and translate business requirements into actions, and ensure design, development and implementation of effective, cost-conscious learning solutions that embed required changes and capabilities and deliver on business results.

• Work closely with colleagues in the People Partnering Organization (PPO) representing the delivery team for many L&D initiatives – starting with the design of solutions, the ongoing monitoring of how the solution is working in practice, and process improvement in the deployment.

• Drive clear measurement, value realization and optimization of solutions, continuously monitoring progress and tracking benefit realization and delivery of intended results. Proactively pull and evaluate input from the organisation and stakeholders to achieve end-to-end benefits and optimization.

• Keep up to date on relevant trends and innovations, to continue to push how we design, develop, implement, and evaluate learning and development solutions.
