Caledonian Maritime Assets Limited (CMAL) owns ferries, ports and harbour infrastructure necessary for vital ferry services serving many communities throughout the West Coast of Scotland, Clyde Estuary and the Northern Isles. We aim to provide efficient, cost effective and safe vessels, harbours and associated port infrastructure for operators, communities and users in and around Scotland.
The company has grown quickly over the last few years and the major projects our teams manage have also increased in number and size. CMAL currently has 13 vessels under construction around the globe and major infrastructure work is taking place in ports and harbours such as Port Ellen on the Isle of Islay where redevelopment of the harbour and construction of a new terminal building is on-going.
With the increase in the size and accounting complexity of the company, the need for compliance with evolving legislation and due diligence in our supply chain has also increased. As a result of this, we are recruiting for a Finance Administrator to support the Finance Team.
