Mover is a profitable scale-up logistics and technology company headquartered in Copenhagen, with IKEA as a shareholder and global partner. We are passionate about creating smarter logistics solutions, reducing waste, and making people’s lives better. To drive the growth of both our logistics and technology ambitions in the Benelux region, we seek an experienced leader who can deliver both operational excellence and commercial growth.
This is your chance to lead the charge and get things moving across the Benelux region on a profitable foundation and with close support from global functions in Copenhagen, Denmark.
THE OPPORTUNITY
With full P&L responsibility you will build, lead, and inspire local teams to deliver on our customer promises and ambitious growth strategy. The foundation is a strong, profitable logistics operation with IKEA as our main regional customer. To help with continuous improvements, you'll get all the support you need from our global functions in Copenhagen.
To set the bar high in the beginning, you will personally build and convert our strategic logistics and software customer pipeline. As the business scales and grows organically you'll also get to build the commercial organization from the bottom-up.
THE JOB
- Take full ownership of daily logistics operations and commercial growth with direct P&L accountability and full support from our headquarters in Copenhagen.
- Identify, approach, and establish relationships with new strategic customers within both logistics and software solutions.
- Build, lead, and inspire high-performing operations and commercial teams.

- Maintain high operational standards, compliance with local regulations, and adherence to our values and brand.
ABOUT YOU
We’re seeking a highly driven and entrepreneurial practitioner who is able to ‘connect the dots’ and find your way in the ambiguous setting that a scale-up can be. You must have the bandwidth and the framework to 'roll up the sleeves' when necessary while conceptualizing and leading business development – both operationally and commercially.
Your energy and ambition are positively affecting those around you, and you probably have a great sense of humor.
To be considered a highly attractive candidate for this role, you likely possess most of the following traits:
- Leadership experience from high-growth organization and preferably within logistics or other services.
- Strong commercial acumen preferably with experience from sales or other customer-facing roles where you have built relationships and driven the agenda.
- Entrepreneurial mindset to maintain initiative, work independently, and with the grit to navigate challenges in a fast-paced environment.
- Analytical and structured problem-solving skills with ability to analyze data, draw plans, and execute accordingly.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to inspire and influence others in English, Dutch, and French is a plus.
THE PACKAGE
- A unique opportunity to significantly impact an innovative, growing international logistics technology company.
- Autonomy and decision-making authority combined with structured support from our experienced HQ team.
- Competitive compensation package with an attractive upside aligned with experience and results.
- An inclusive, collaborative, and high-energy working environment
- A culture that values autonomy, energy, and good people who get things done.
OUR CORE VALUES
Lead with integrity – We believe that integrity is a reciprocal value – it means treating others as we wish to be treated. With respect, honesty, and sound ethics.
Be accountable – We embrace freedom in decision-making, initiative, and actions while accepting full responsibility for outcomes and results.
Push boundaries – We challenge norms, innovate, and move fast to drive changes to continuously improve things for everyone affected by our products and services.
Play, as a team – We are serious without taking ourselves too seriously, and balance having sun with achieving great things, together.
READY TO MOVE?
