The international maritime industry is experiencing major changes in how it operates and within the dry bulk shipping sector a rapid transformation is taking place. This is driven by technological advances, the stricter regulatory standards these advances bring and environmental considerations.
With such changes, it’s no surprise that both onshore and at sea there is an increasing demand for maritime professionals equipped with the knowledge and the skills to meet these growing complexities and safety requirements. Skilled personnel play a pivotal role in every dry shipping organisation, as they ensure operational efficiency and maintain the highest safety measures in a competitive and high-risk industry.
Further to technical skills, the dry bulk sector also requires that these professionals have health, safety, security, and environmental (HSSE) expertise to ensure compliance and minimise risks.
