Shipping decarbonization
The Maersk Mc-Kinney Møller Center is a non-profit independent research centre, working across the whole of shipping with industry, academia and the authorities, it said upon its launch last year.
“The mission of the Center is to be a driving force in shipping’s decarbonization journey,” the organisation said in its job posting.
Focus on economic research
To do this the Center must accelerate the transition by defining and maturing viable strategic pathways to the required systemic change. To do so is the core success criteria for the chief economist.
The new hire will focus on economic research for the centre’s transition strategy.
“When developed and communicated successfully, [the strategy] will create confidence among investors, de-risk investments and accelerate investment into decarbonization,” the organisation said.
