Location: USA - Miami, 122nd St 

Division: Air & Sea 
Job Posting Title: Project Manager, Cruise - 119403 
Time Type: Full Time

Project Manager, Cruise

Our Cruise & Marine Projects team manages some of the most complex, dynamic, and exciting logistics projects within DSV. This is your opportunity to work in one of the world's fastest-growing entertainment and vacation industries, alongside a team of highly talented professionals with years of experience delivering high-profile, time-critical projects.

No two projects are the same. Every assignment requires close coordination across multiple countries, suppliers, carriers, warehouses, customs authorities, and customer stakeholders, making each day both challenging and rewarding.

This role is ideal for someone looking for more than traditional freight forwarding. We are looking for individuals who thrive in a fast-paced environment, strive for operational excellence, and are eager to build expertise in project management, commercial strategy, and customer engagement. There will also be opportunities to travel and support projects on-site around the world, gaining firsthand experience while working with global customers and international teams.

A unique aspect of this role is the opportunity to support projects on-site around the world. During project assignments, team members may travel for three or more weeks at a time and work in active shipyards and construction-like environments. While the work can be demanding, it provides invaluable hands-on experience, close collaboration with customers and global teams, and the opportunity to see major projects come to life firsthand.This is a role for individuals who enjoy solving complex challenges, adapting to changing environments, and being part of a team that delivers critical projects where every day brings something new.

• Monitoring critical shipments and proactively resolving issues
• Participating in customer meetings and project reviews
• Learning project budgeting, reporting, and operational planning
• Assisting with development of logistics strategies and continuous improvements

What Makes This Role Different?

• Unlike traditional operations roles, this position offers:
• Exposure to global, high-profile projects
• Direct interaction with major international customers
• Opportunity to travel and support projects on-site when required
• Cross-functional collaboration with teams around the world
• A fast-paced environment where no two projects are the same

Who We Are Looking For

• We are looking for individuals who are:
• Curious and eager to learn
• Organized and detail-oriented
• Strong communicators
• Comfortable working in a dynamic environment
• Problem solvers who enjoy challenges
• Passionate about everything they do
• Independent

Previous project logistics experience is helpful but not required. The right attitude, willingness to learn, and customer-first mindset are more important.

As experience grows, team members will take ownership of larger projects, lead customer relationships, mentor new employees, and become key contributors to the continued expansion of DSV's Cruise & Marine business.
