After his graduation, Jensen became the head of the workshop at the Royal Danish Academy and in 1967 founded his own design office. Over the years, he has created numerous industrial designs including electronic instruments and television sets for Bang & Olufsen, navigational instruments for SHIPMATE, and various insulin appliances for Novo Nordisk A/S. He has also participated in the development of the Danish Railways state of the art train, 'IC3'. In addition, Jens Møller-Jensen has worked with graphical design such as signposts and boards for the Danish Highway Authority and a system of signposts for the Danish State Railways. 

His most famous work for Louis Poulsen Lighting is the 'Satellit' post tops outdoor luminaires which have been used for four decades in many locations throughout the world. This design has also earned Jensen the '2000 Danish Classical Design Award'.
