We're looking for an exceptional Cadet, Training & Competence Coordinator to join our Learning & Development team and help develop future maritime professionals while supporting the skills, competence, and workforce readiness that underpin safe and successful operations across our fleet.
Join a business that is investing heavily in the development of its people, creating career opportunities across one of the UK's most modern and diverse offshore fleets.

Working across fleet and shore operations, you'll collaborate with a wide range of stakeholders and contribute to the future capability of our business.
