Are you looking for a great opportunity to develop in the maritime industry?

About the Position

Due to continued increased activity and healthy business growth, we are looking for Ship Agents/Logistics Coordinators in Ålesund, Bømlo, and Tromsø.  

We are looking both for entry level positions and Agents with experience. This opportunity is thus also available for you who is interested in the industry but has no formal experience. It is also open for you who has years of experience and want now to take on new challenges in a company that values your competency.  

If applying for an entry level role, you will be learning the many aspects of the position while working side-by-side with a local experienced mentor, supporting operations from day 1. These positions are open to anyone who is sensitive to internal and external customer needs and is excited by the idea of applying this passion in an international, diverse, and inclusive environment. Training will be provided, and the goal is to develop into a fully independent, operational position.

If applying for a Ship Agent or Senior Ship Agent level role, you will receive initial training in our systems and routines and have access to a network of internal experts in all relevant areas. Once you are ready, you will work alongside our Offshore team and in cooperation with our other departments throughout Norway and the GAC world. Within the first few months, we will work with you to identify your strengths and motivations and adapt your role to reflect this.

Much of the duties of these positions do require physical presence, thus we are unfortunately unable to open these opportunities to accommodate those that need or want to work remotely.
