Commercial

The Commercial sector is one of the most accessible sectors of the industry. With ships and services ranging from ferries and tankers to survey and research vessels.

Why Commercial?

Accessibility

The commercial sector is found in practically every port around the country, and even areas outside major ports, such as with small ferry services.

No matter where you’re based, it’s conceivable a port is quite literally around the corner.

Ever Growing

“Commerce is the life blood of a nation”, a quote that sums up why this sector will always be expanding.

As needs for commodities like shipping, transport and scientific studies increase, so does this industry. Pursuing a career in commercial is just as sustainable as in the renewable industry, if not more.

Consistency

Much like working with commercial industries on land, commercial vessels provide a consistent service and can be a sector you can rely upon for ongoing employment.

Pleased and excited to announce that tomorrow I’m making my way to Inverness to begin a new, promising chapter in my career with Scotline as a 2nd Officer. Of course I can’t make this post without saying a massive thank you to the team at Seamariner Limited, specifically Greg Livermore who not only found me my first qualified position last year, but also kept me in the loop and at sea over the past 10 months or so.

So, after 2 miserable years of freelancing and working unfashionable rotations, trying to put food on the table, I can now proudly say that I’ve officially started as Master with Ports of Jersey on the beautiful island. It’s been a rare pleasure so far and I can see it continuing for a long time to come. Big thanks to Greg Livermore at Seamariner Limited for a great service. It was a pleasure and I can’t recommend your services enough.
