Its nothing to do with maven or pom. You are trying to run maven from eclipse and hence you need to make sure that you configure JDK properly in eclipse. I think the version of JDK mentioned in the eclipse is not that is installed. So change in eclipse and point the JRE System Library to your installed JDK path.
