Product Owner – Port Automation Solution

Jobbeskrivelse

Do you want to own and drive a critical digital solution that delivers real, measurable impact? Scandlines is looking for a Product Owner (PO) for our Port Automation Solution.

As Product Owner for the Port Automation Solution, you will set direction, drive priorities, and ensure the solution creates tangible value for Scandlines’ customers, operations, and the wider organization.

You will act as the key link between business needs, operational realities, and technical delivery — turning strategy into concrete outcomes. With a strong focus on user value and continuous improvement, you will play a pivotal role in shaping a solution that is both forward-looking and firmly grounded in day-to-day operations.

Scandlines is a modern and innovative ferry operator, running two high-capacity, high-frequency routes with a green ambition for the future. At Scandlines we want to provide the best break on the journey for both passengers and freight customers. The Port Automation Solution has today been rolled out in our Rødby – Puttgarden route, and in short term we wish to rollout the solution in the second route (Gedser – Rostock). This will be one of the first tasks to look at as the new PO.

As part of the role, you will be functional team leader of the Port Automation Solution team. The team consist of three members situated in both our main office in Havneholmen and in our office in Rostock.

You will report to the Head of Applications & IT Projects within the IT & Automation department.
