Head of Onboard & Port sales

Introduktion

The Head of Onboard & Port sales plays a critical role in Scandlines’ commercial turnaround. In a market where customers increasingly have alternatives such as airlines, bridges and competing ferry operators, later directly with a tunnel, success is no longer driven by transportation alone. The onboard and port experience has become a key differentiator and an important driver of both customer satisfaction and commercial performance.

Jobbeskrivelse

Do you want to lead and transform Scandlines’ commercial activities across ports and onboard environments while creating measurable growth and exceptional customer experiences?

Scandlines is seeking a commercially driven Head of Onboard & Port sales to lead the development and execution of an integrated commercial strategy that maximizes customer spend, enhances passenger experiences, and unlocks the full commercial potential of our ports and ferries.

As Head of Onboard & Port sales, you will own and drive end-to-end revenue generation across all physical passenger touchpoints. Your mission is to convert passenger time, flow, dwell time, and customer behaviour into measurable commercial performance and sustainable revenue growth.

You will translate customer insights, passenger flow, operational opportunities, and frontline interactions into commercial initiatives that create value for both customers and Scandlines.

A key focus of the role is to maximize Spend Per Passenger (SPP) and Spend Per Passenger per Minute (SPPM). You will use SPPM as a core commercial metric to identify high-value opportunities across the customer journey and ensure that every minute of passenger presence creates value.

You will work closely with senior management and key stakeholders across the organization and play a pivotal role in shaping the future commercial development of Scandlines.

The position requires on-site presence in Rødby three days per week.
