As Director (m/f/d) Digital Product Growth & Green* Products, you are responsible for the commercial development of Ship Green* and for establishing the foundations that enable the broader adoption and scaling of Hapag-Lloyd’s customer-facing digital solutions across the Regions.
The role combines responsibility for coordinating Ship Green*’s commercial growth agenda with responsibility for enabling the growing traction of selected customer-facing digital solutions, with a particular focus on the Quick Quotes Family and Value-Added Services.
*Ship Green is a service that can be added to a Hapag-Lloyd ocean shipment. Hapag-Lloyd uses certified alternative fuels for part of its fuel consumption within its network and allocates the associated emission reductions to booked Ship Green shipments through a Book & Claim approach. This does not necessarily mean that a specific shipment is physically transported on vessels using these alternative fuels. Ship Green 25, 50 and 100 refer to the share of a shipment's energy allocated to certified alternative fuels, not to the percentage of emissions reduced. The numbers currently correspond to Well-to-Wake emission reductions of at least 21%, 42% and 84% compared with conventional transport using very Low Sulphur Fuel Oil (VLSFO). Further information on the methodology and the fuels used is available at hapag-lloyd.com/ship-green.
