Business Development Lead
Agri Supply Chain Solutions
We’re looking for a commercially strong profile to help develop our containerized agri logistics activities from Copenhagen.
The role is about identifying, structuring and developing customer solutions across agri commodities - using the assets, relationships and market knowledge already present across Copenhagen Merchants Group.
You’ll work at the intersection of customers, containers, rail, terminals, freight, logistics and commercial opportunity. Not as a narrow desk role, but as someone who can connect markets, people and practical solutions.
Why this role exists
Copenhagen Merchants Group has a broad platform across agri commodities, brokerage, shipping, terminals, logistics and market intelligence. We now see an opportunity to further develop our containerized agri logistics activities - with rail as an important part of the solution - by connecting customers, markets and assets in a more structured commercial setup.
That is where you come in.
We’re looking for a Business Developer to build and develop containerized agri logistics solutions from our Copenhagen office. The role is about understanding customer needs, identifying commercial opportunities and leveraging the existing CM platform to create practical, valuable solutions across markets.
You’ll work closely with colleagues across CM Group - including brokerage, shipping, terminals, logistics and digital market intelligence - and help turn existing relationships and assets into new commercial opportunities.
In short: you’ll help connect what CM already has with what the market needs next.
What you’ll be doing
Your work will include:
Developing containerized agri logistics activities from Copenhagen
Identifying customer needs and commercial opportunities across selected markets
Building relationships with relevant customers, partners and service providers
Structuring practical logistics solutions using CM’s existing network, assets and market knowledge
Working closely with colleagues across brokerage, shipping, terminals and logistics
Following market developments, customer demand and capacity opportunities
Preparing customer material, calculations and internal decision input
Helping build a scalable setup for containerized agri activities across CM Group
Who you are
You’re a commercially driven profile with experience from container logistics, agri commodities, freight forwarding, shipping, supply chain or related areas.
You understand how physical goods move across markets - and how customers, capacity, documents, timing and relationships need to come together for a solution to work.
You are not just interested in logistics as administration. You are interested in logistics as business.
We imagine you bring:
Experience with containerized logistics, preferably connected to agri commodities or food/feed-related products
Strong commercial understanding and ability to develop customer solutions
A solid network or strong market understanding within containers, shipping, freight forwarding or agri-supply chains
Ability to work across customers, internal stakeholders and external partners
Strong analytical skills and comfort working with calculations, margins and practical feasibility
Fluency in English; Danish or other relevant languages are an advantage
What we offer
You’ll join a new dedicated team of three people, built to develop and scale CM’s containerized agri logistics activities.
The team is new - but the experience is not. You’ll work alongside colleagues with deep CM knowledge, strong commercial understanding and many years of experience across our markets, customers and internal setup.
That gives you a rare starting point: the chance to help build something new, while standing on an existing platform of relationships, assets, market knowledge and group support.
You’ll get:
A central role in developing a new commercial area within CM Group
Close collaboration with three highly experienced CM colleagues in a dedicated team setup
Access to CM’s broader platform across brokerage, shipping, terminals, logistics and market intelligence
Real commercial responsibility and room to shape how the setup develops
A role close to customers, markets, assets and practical solutions
High trust, short decision paths and a culture where useful work matters more than corporate theatre
We’re based in Nordhavn, in an office that impresses most guests - and yes, shorts are allowed when the sun is out.
You’ll also meet T.W. Heart, our cultural ambassador and resident octopus. You don’t need to fully understand that on day one. Most of us didn’t either.
Interested?
Upload your CV and a short video introduction - max. a minute.
Tell us briefly why this role makes sense for you, and why you think you could be useful in building practical customer solutions across agri-commodities, containers, markets and assets.
No studio. No script. Just you, your motivation and a minute of our attention.
