You’ll play a key role in making sure our ships sail full, efficient, and on schedule balancing customer demands, operational constraints, and commercial priorities.

Responsibilities:

  • Managing vessel space – ensuring ships are well-utilised across different trade routes

  • Planning cargo allocation – tactical decision making based on booking development.

  • Monitoring bookings – tracking how quickly space is filling up and adjusting plans when needed

  • Making real-time decisions – prioritising cargo when space is limited or disruptions occur

  • Working with global teams – coordinating with planners, commercial teams, and customer service across regions

  • Handling operational challenges – e.g. delays, transshipment connections, or special cargo requirements

  • Improving performance – supporting KPIs such as vessel utilisation, booking response time, and on-time loading

What will help you succeed:

  • Strong analytical thinking and keen to work with numbers and patterns.

  • Good communication skills as you’ll be working with different teams globally.

  • Ability to prioritise and make decisions under pressure.

  • A proactive mindset to spot issues before they escalate.

  • Willingness to learn and take ownership.

Highly advantageous if you:

  • are familiar with Excel or data tools

  • have had internships or exposure to shipping/logistics/trade management

We welcome candidates with a background or interest in maritime, logistics, supply chain or trade management

You don’t need full-time experience, but it helps if you:

  • Have studied maritime, logistics, transportation, or a related field

  • Are comfortable working with data and making decisions

  • Enjoy solving problems in a fast-paced, real-world environment
