We offer

A.P. Møller Holding is a holding and investment company fully owned by A.P. Møller Foundation with approximately USD 20 billion under management. The purpose of A.P.

A.P. Møller Holding has decided to invest in geothermal energy to bring an underutilised source of energy into play as part of the green transition of the heating sector.

We are a small entrepreneurial and highly energised organisation. We work hard and we have fun doing it. As a team, we see our different backgrounds and experiences as a genuine source of strength, and we respect each other’s technical and functional competencies. Our structure is lean and flat.

We are a start-up business with a very dynamic working environment, where everyone has to chip in, and you have to be willing and able to contribute – also outside your individual area of expertise.
