Chief Engineer

When you think of adventure, you think of Redwise. Since 1906, Redwise has been one of the most versatile maritime employers. We specialize in a unique sector: Ship Delivery. This means we transport all types of ships worldwide from A to B for our clients, which may involve transferring ships from shipyards to shipping companies, between two client locations, or from sellers to buyers. In addition to Ship Delivery, we have expanded our services over the years to include crew management and North Sea pilots. We also operate our own research vessel, the ARCTIC, which is deployed as a charter ship for seabed research. Thanks to this diversity of services, we can adopt a very flexible approach towards our team of seafarers and offer the role you are looking for.
