Head of Marine and Vetting, Ship Owner

Own marine standards and vetting across a mixed merchant fleet.
 
Angle Recruitment has partnered with a major international shipowner to appoint its Head of Marine and Vetting. The group operates a mixed merchant fleet of vessels, including wet and dry tonnage.
 
The role is based in London and leads a dedicated marine team working remotely.
 
In short, your job is to keep the fleet safe, compliant and approved by the majors and charterers.

• Lead marine operations across navigation, cargo and incident management
• Own vetting performance and oil major approvals across the tanker fleet
• Lead and develop a remote marine team
• Take on DPA responsibilities or a similar function
• Build strong relationships with charterers, terminals and the majors

You'll bring senior experience in both marine operations and vetting across wet and dry tonnage, and you must have both. Time as DPA or in a similar role is ideal. You'll have managed remote teams, have a strong network across the industry and be a clear communicator.
 
In return, you'll get a senior role with real authority in a respected international shipping group.
