Commercial Officer

When you think of adventure, you think of Redwise. Since 1906, Redwise has been one of the most versatile maritime employers. We specialize in a unique field: Ship Delivery. This means we transport all types of ships worldwide from A to B for our clients. This could be from the shipyard to the shipping company, between two locations of the client, or from seller to buyer. In addition to Ship Delivery, we have expanded our services over the years to include crew management and North Sea pilots. With crew management, we deploy seafarers, sailing on behalf of our clients for both short- and long-term assignments. Moreover, we operate our own research vessel, the ARCTIC.

Do you enjoy working with people in an international environment and like the feeling of making things work? Are you not afraid of deadlines and being part of a dynamic organization? Then we are looking for you to join #TEAMREDWISE in the capacity of Commercial Officer. Following an internal hands-on training, you will become a navigator in the vibrant world of shipping, where every day provides a new challenge to fulfill the requirements of our customers. You search, find, get to know and meet ship owners, yards and managers requiring their vessels to be delivered in a professional cost-efficient manner. You will market our services, carry out cost estimation and make realistic proposals. Travelling internationally is an essential part of your work, alone or together with your colleagues.
