The posting

As a salvage master you can make your mark in the dynamic and high-stakes field of marine salvage, managing emergency response - and wreck removal projects. Your mission is to protect the environment while safeguarding the vessel and its cargo, often under intense and challenging conditions.

Your will lead a team of dedicated salvage professionals that typically includes a salvage supervisor, an salvage engineer, a naval architect and other specialists tailored to the project’s needs. Together, your focus will be on swiftly stabilizing situations, whether that means keeping a vessel afloat, extinguishing fires, coordinating tugs or managing fuel and cargo. Success in this role requires making critical decisions, acting decisively and always prioritizing safety. This is your chance to leave a lasting impact in one of the most exciting and essential areas of the maritime industry.

Your responsibilities as a salvage master

  • Lead Salvage Operations: Manage the safe and successful execution of salvage projects ensuring they meet safety, quality, time and financial objectives as well as client and SMIT Salvage specifications.

In addition to your operational responsibilities, you will have a significant commercial role.
