About the role

DFDS is developing rapidly across Europe, Türkiye and Northern Africa. We have an ambitious climate action plan to reduce CO2 emissions – and we are determined to become an even more inclusive place to work. As a growing company, the need for alignment and scalability is apparent, and standardization and digitization are key priorities.

We are looking for a Head of Learning & Development to shape and refine our L&D offerings, including anchoring the new DFDS leadership model and launching the DFDS Academy. This should be done with a view to securing maximum impact of the existing budget and resources.

As the Head of Learning & Development at DFDS, you will be charged with:

  • Design, develop and manage training programs within our DFDS Academy, with a view to:
    • Securing alignment with DFDS strategic focus and a ONE DFDS approach
    • Catering for the scale and complexity of our diverse workforce
    • Incorporating future capability requirements and learning styles
  • Monitor and report on the effectiveness, engagement and impact of our learning and talent programs
  • Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders to ensure the effectiveness of our learning initiatives
  • Oversee the L&D team, ensuring alignment with company goals

You will be responsible for setting the direction of our learning and development efforts, ensuring that our employees have the tools and knowledge they need to succeed. You will have access to the latest technology (Workday and Skillsoft Percipio) to support your work.

As our new Head of Learning & Development, you will join the People Division, who supports DFDS' overall strategy and works to ensure that DFDS becomes an even greater place to work. Specifically, you will be a part of the Centre of Excellence team – based in our new headquarter premises in Nordhavn, Copenhagen – reporting to the Head of Centre of Excellence.

Within the Centre of Excellence team, we are responsible for different areas. However, we are team players and take great pride in knowledge sharing and in exchanging tools, approaches, etc. to inspire and help each other. While we have a strong professionalism, we make sure to have fun along the way - both in the office and in off-site social activities.

About you

We believe the strongest teams are built on diversity and inclusivity. Contrasting opinions, varied skills and strong characters bring out the best in us all.

The ideal person for this position will have the following qualifications:

  • Holds a degree in a relevant field and has extensive experience in learning and development (10+ years)
  • Has a proven track record of developing and implementing successful learning strategies
  • Is an excellent communicator and collaborator, able to work effectively with various stakeholders
  • Shows a commitment to continuous improvement and innovation in learning and development
  • Demonstrates strong leadership skills with the ability to manage and inspire a team

Working at DFDS. Join the movement and grow with us.

We promote a great workplace with a diverse and vibrant community and a healthy work/life balance. Our newly built headquarters in Copenhagen is a unique, modern workplace. Here, we enjoy our own game room, fitness facilities, cantina and café and a rooftop terrace with a beautiful ocean view, all just 5 minutes from the nearest train & metro stations.

While you're with us, we want you to develop – and we will encourage and support you in challenging yourself to acquire new skills and perspectives.

Are we a match? Apply Now.

If you think your personality, skills, experience, and desire match this role, we'd love to hear from you. As we're keen to meet potential candidates on an ongoing basis, please send us your CV as soon as possible and no later than the 8th of April.

Do not hesitate to reach out to Cecilia Lonning-Skovgaard, Head of Centre of Excellence, at or +45-6124 0275. The position will be filled as soon as possible.

We look forward to hearing from you.
