SECONDEE: PMO Project Manager, Green Corridors (multiple positions)

TERMS

Your current home employer remains your employer during the period where you perform your contribution to the Center.

Thus, the employer obligations will remain with your home employer including payment of all compensation, salaries, remuneration and costs owed to you as an employee, as well as any social or employment related taxes and all associated costs and expenses.

If interested, please reach out to your organization point of contact with the Center. 

OVERVIEW

To help accelerate the alternative fuel transition, the Center is involved in several projects across the globe supporting the implementation of green corridors. Green corridors are shipping routes on which there are commercially operating ships using exclusively alternative fuels. In practice, a green corridor may be implemented in phases, where the use of alternative fuels evolves gradually, and design is made scalable to ensure flexibility and the realization of the green corridor. The Center has developed methodologies for both pre-feasibility and feasibility studies of green corridors, which all projects are following.

We are looking for 2 experienced project managers to take on responsibility for one or more green corridor projects. The preferred start date is January 2025. The preferred candidates will be allocated at a minimum of 80% full time equivalent to the Center for at least 12 months. They are expected to take residence in Copenhagen and work from the Center during the assignment.
