VESSEL SUPERINTENDENT - £40,000 - £45,000pa – EAST, UK

JOB DESCRIPTION

The Marine Department, which is responsible for the maintenance, care and overall operations of our client’s fleet of survey vessels, has opportunities for persons who are established within this or a similar role.

The position is based at our client’s head office on the East coast, but you will be required to visit vessels as part of your managerial role on a worldwide scale, to promote communication and inter-department as well as inter-company relations relating to the effective running of the vessels. This will involve travel and some working away, coordinating projects.

We would welcome applicants with recent experience within the marine industry, either in a seagoing role or shore-based position where they are or were involved with ships’ maintenance, repair and dry-docking. We would certainly consider those who have gained experience working in shipyards within manufacture or repair, and previous experience of overseeing vessel conversions and refits. Any supervisory, management and project planning experience within any of the above areas would be an advantage.

The ideal candidate will possess a Chief Engineers Certificate of Competency or equivalent qualification and be able to demonstrate a working knowledge of vessel operational requirements including, but not limited to, ISM, Classification Society Regulations and Flag State requirements, SOLAS and MARPOL. 

You will have a proven track record demonstrating commercial awareness and judgement in ship management in an international arena. We are looking for a dynamic individual with team spirit and a determination to get the job done. Confidence and the ability to communicate appropriately to the many different persons and work with those involved on our projects are also key attributes to bring to this role.
