A Hellenic Shipping News article dated September 16, 2026 reports the launch of Marine‑Jobs.com, a new online platform designed to make it easier for shipowners, operators and maritime companies to find crew, while seafarers and maritime professionals can create profiles and access job opportunities. The initiative reflects wider industry efforts to digitise crewing processes and improve transparency in seafarer employment.

According to Hellenic Shipping News on September 16, 2026, the Marine‑Jobs.com platform has gone live, inviting shipowners, operators and maritime companies to post vacancies while crew, seafarers and other maritime professionals can create profiles and explore job opportunities. The article describes the service as an international solution aimed at reducing fragmentation in the crewing market, with tools to match candidates to positions based on qualifications, experience and certification. The launch is presented as a response to persistent difficulties in connecting available seafarers with open positions efficiently, a problem that continues despite years of recruitment digitalisation.
