Our story
Marine People was created to help support an industry suffering from a desperate talent shortage and skills gap. Top specialist shipbuilding talent was, and still is, hard to come by.
Since 2017, in partnership with IMarEST, we’ve been on a mission to find the best shipbuilding talent globally, giving our clients a competitive edge, and our candidates guidance and advice to find the right opportunities at the right companies. In that time, we have successfully placed candidates in major shipyards all over the world. Something that we’re entrusted to do for the largest shipbuilders globally.
At the heart of our agency is a team of industry experts who not only understand the intricacies of shipbuilding recruitment, but also recognise the unique qualities that set top talent apart. Our dedicated recruiters work tirelessly to identify, evaluate, and connect professionals with opportunities that align with their skills, experience, and aspirations.
