Senior Customer Experience Consultant

Maersk is seeking a Customer Experience (CX) Consultant to serve as the dedicated SCM point of contact in Tokyo. This role is scoped exclusively to client's Supply Chain Management workstreams — Ocean product, booking, and carriage-related activity sit outside this role's remit and are owned by separate teams. The successful candidate will step directly into live, in-flight account work, including support for client's Global Inbound Cargo Management (ICM) program, and must be capable of operating with minimal onboarding time. This is not an entry-level or developmental posting: we require an immediate asset who can absorb account context quickly, take ownership of open items in the first weeks, and represent CX credibly in cross-functional and customer-facing settings from day one.

Key Responsibilities

• Own day-to-day SCM Customer Experience delivery for the account in Tokyo, acting as the primary CX contact for client stakeholders on non-ocean, SCM-scoped activity.

• Support execution of client's Global Inbound Cargo Management (ICM) program workstreams, including readiness activities, task and milestone tracking, and issue resolution ahead of scheduled go-live milestones.

• Manage case and query resolution for SCM operations, ensuring accurate, timely, and well-documented responses that meet contractual and service-level commitments.

• Partner cross-functionally with Product, Technology, Operations, Finance, and account management teams to ensure client requirements are captured, tracked, and delivered against.

• Maintain data-driven visibility of account health — surfacing risks, delays, and escalations early, with clear recommendations rather than raw status updates.

• Coordinate and, where appropriate, lead working sessions and status reviews with stakeholders and internal teams to keep milestones on track.

• Document standard operating procedures, process maps, and playbooks specific to the SCM scope, ensuring continuity and audit-readiness.

• Identify process improvement and automation opportunities within the account's CX operations and drive them to completion in partnership with CI/process teams.

• Act as an internal advocate for client's SCM priorities, translating account needs into actionable internal requirements without overstepping into ocean-side account management.

• Escalate appropriately and hold internal stakeholders accountable to committed deliverables and timelines.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree, preferably in Business, Supply Chain Management, Logistics, or a related field.

• Minimum 4+ years of relevant experience in supply chain management, logistics customer experience, account/project management, or a comparable operational role; prior experience supporting a named enterprise account is strongly preferred.

• Demonstrated ability to operate independently in a matrix organization and drive outcomes without direct authority.

• Strong working knowledge of SCM processes, process mapping, and case/issue management practices.

• Proven track record managing cross-functional stakeholders (Product, Technology, Finance, Operations) toward shared deliverables.

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills in both Japanese and English, sufficient for client-facing and executive-level communication.

• Ability to work with data to identify risk, track performance, and support fact-based decision-making.

• Comfortable in a fast-paced environment with the ability to ramp up quickly on an in-flight account with minimal supervision.
