Designing the systems that turn a global sales lead into a signed contract.
I lead UX for Maersk's enterprise contract-negotiation platform — a suite of complex enterprise products that carries a deal from a sales lead in Salesforce all the way to a signed, stored contract. Through optimised user journeys, increased automation, and smarter workflow orchestration, my team and I design the platform that facilitates over $10B in business a year.
The problem
Quoting a large customer means coordinating everyone who prices a different part of the offer — sometimes 30+ specialists across the world. It used to happen in Excel, email, phone calls and Teams meetings. A single quote could take up to six months to reach the customer. By then, we had often already lost the business.
01 — The solution
I drive end-to-end design across the suite, from research and strategy to production. At the centre sits an orchestrator: it runs the configure-price-quote flow and delegates each task — service selection, pricing, negotiation, legal, signing, reporting — to the right people based on the customer's profile and requirements. The coordination that used to live in inboxes now lives in one system, with a relentless focus on reducing complexity and improving task completion.
The impact
The last two come from the nine months after I took over this space.
02 — Award-winning
Customers send their requirements as their own Excel sheets — often 10,000+ rows and 50+ columns, every one formatted differently. The team I work with built an AI solution that reads those sheets and converts them into our structured format, ready to quote — removing one of the slowest, most error-prone steps in the whole process. It went on to win Gold at the Danish Digital Award.
Credit where it's due: that win was largely an engineering achievement — the genuinely hard technical problem belonged to the team. I contributed on the design and UX side, but the breakthrough was theirs.
03 — Shaping strategy
UX usually receives business requirements after the strategy is already set. On Short Term Contracts, it was different. My manager brought me in at the identification stage — partnering directly with business to research whether short-term contracts belonged on the same platform.
The answer was a clear yes, and it became the organisation's number-one priority for 200+ people. The result is an even more automated path to a quote — faster, with less human intervention. It has just launched, and the early signs are strong.
This platform is commercially sensitive, so I've kept the detail high-level here. I'm happy to walk through the work, decisions and process in depth in an interview.
