? We’re Hiring: Structural / Design Engineer (Marine) ?

If you’re passionate about ships, cargo, and problem-solving, this role could be for you!

What you’ll be doing:

  • Look at vessel hull strength and come up with smart ways to reinforce structures for heavy or project cargo.

  • Create plans and reports – think lashing, stowage, securing, dunnage, and heavy lifting.

  • Work with owners, charterers, shipmasters, and class societies to get approvals and resolve any technical questions.

  • Support our commercial team with technical input during vessel evaluations and tenders.

  • Keep records updated, spot opportunities to cut costs, and improve the way we do things.

  • Share your knowledge with the team and train others when needed.

What we’re looking for:

  • A diploma/degree in Marine Engineering or Naval Architecture.

  • Around 5+ years’ experience as a structural or design engineer in shipyards or marine engineering.

  • Confident with CAD tools (AutoCAD or similar), plus analysis software like Femap/Nastran.

  • Experience in cargo lashing design (e.g. DNV Lashcon), and some knowledge of lifting/rigging.

  • Strong grasp of vessel stability, cargo loading, welding, and marine structures.

  • Someone who can work independently but also enjoys teamwork.

  • Calm under pressure and able to handle those “last-minute” situations.
