UK-based Masters and Mates – Fleet Department

Due to continued growth and new project awards, we are looking to expand our offshore operations team with experienced Masters and

Mates who have the right to work in the UK and are able to work from UK locations. You will work offshore on Njord Survey’s own

vessels, mainly in UK waters and elsewhere in Northern Europe, on a rotation of two weeks on, four weeks off.

Njord Survey was founded in 2015 with a clear ambition: to challenge how offshore surveys are delivered. By combining

state-of-the-art technology with innovative thinking, we deliver high-quality hydrographic and geophysical surveys more

efficiently, for navigation, dredging, charting, marine construction for renewable energy and more.

Njord Survey is currently in an exciting phase of growth, and we recently reached 120 dedicated employees offering customized

solutions for project specific requirements and client needs. We offer opportunities for personal development in a dynamic

environment. Njord Survey Ltd is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applications from all qualified individuals.

At Njord Survey, we use state-of-the-art technology to operate efficient survey vessels with a lower environmental footprint. Our

vessels typically carry a crew of 2 to 8 people, depending on vessel size and project, which allows us to stay flexible and adapt

quickly to our clients’ needs. Data is collected on board and processed by our onshore team at our office in Gothenburg, Sweden.

On board, we work as one team. The vessel operates independently in planning and executing survey operations, in close

collaboration with the office and our onshore processing team. Together, the crew is responsible for the safe navigation,

operation and maintenance of the vessel, including onboard planning, procurement, inventory and reporting to project management.

On some vessels there is no dedicated engineer, so everyone contributes where needed. We are constantly developing how we operate,

and your experience and ideas are part of that.

Masters carry overall responsibility for the vessel, crew and safety, while Mates support the Master and take operational

responsibility during assigned watches. Both work closely with the survey team on board to ensure high-quality data acquisition.

This position is subject to a six-month probationary period and is intended to become a permanent role upon satisfactory

completion. Upon joining us, you will primarily be used to working on projects in UK waters however work in Scandinavia and other

areas of Europe should be expected.

You thrive in small teams and understand that it is the team that makes the vessel work. You enjoy new challenges, are comfortable

adapting when plans change, and are always ready to lend a hand where it is needed. You have an interest in technology, and

experience from smaller vessels is an advantage.

The recruitment process consists of several evaluation steps to ensure a qualitative process. First a phone interview for us to

learn more about your ambitions and for you to get to know Njord Survey and our offers better, followed by online tests and a

competence-based interview. The aim of the process is for you to learn about the content of the role and for us to evaluate if you

have the right profile for the position. You can read more about our recruitment process at the career page here.
