Ready for something different? Good, so are we. This won’t be your typical logistics job, and we’re not a typical forwarder. At MPL, we think beyond the container and always go one step further in everything we do. How? By living the mission, not just executing the job. With a unique mix of logistics services, real expertise and personal advice, we make things happen. And as our business continues to evolve, technology plays an increasingly important role in how we grow, serve our customers and stay ahead. Now, we’re looking for the next hero to lead that journey. Someone who can bring direction, focus and pace to our technology landscape and turn IT into a real driver of business value. You in?
As CIO, you are responsible for MPL’s digital organization, strategy and roadmap. You bring structure to an international landscape covering enterprise platforms, ERP, business applications, custom software, integrations, customer-facing portals, cloud environments and external technology partners.
You are a strategic business leader with technology expertise. As part of the leadership team, you translate business priorities into digital decisions and challenge the organization on what technology can enable. You define where MPL should standardize, modernize, innovate, buy, partner or build, with a clear focus on business value, operational performance, customer experience, costs and risks.
You own the digital portfolio and budget. You create clear priorities and decision framework, build robust business cases and ensure investments deliver measurable outcomes. With more opportunities than available capacity, you know how to focus resources on what matters, challenge weak business cases and stop initiatives that no longer justify their investment.
You also own MPL’s digital environment and risk posture. You bring external providers, development partners and internal teams into a clear delivery model and hold them accountable for quality, cost, timing and results. You ensure cybersecurity, resilience and technology risk are embedded in architecture, sourcing and investment decisions.
As leader of the digital environment, you set the standard for leadership, accountability and execution. You develop multidisciplinary teams across engineering, applications, data, BI and security, and create strong connections between technology and the business. At the same time, you actively identify opportunities in data, AI and automation, turning them into focused initiatives with a clear business case and measurable impact.
You are an integrator and decision-maker who is comfortable operating at board level as well as challenging architects and technology specialists on substance. You do not need to write the code, but you need enough technical depth to ask the right questions, challenge assumptions and make decisions that stand up in practice.
MPL is a business where digital has a direct impact on operations, customers and growth. You will not start with a blank sheet of paper and that is exactly the point. There is a complex environment to bring together, priorities to sharpen and opportunities to unlock.
You will have the mandate, visibility and responsibility to shape MPL’s digital direction and build an organization capable of delivering it. In short, what we offer you:
- International working environment
- Executive leadership role with direct business impact
- Ownership of MPL’s technology strategy and organization
- Opportunity to shape the future technology landscape
- Competitive salary and remuneration package
- An entrepreneurial culture with short lines and room to act
