Job Description

We are seeking a Technical Superintendent to oversee safe, efficient, and compliant operations of assigned vessels. You will manage dry dockings, maintenance, crew performance, and budgets while ensuring regulatory and class compliance.

Responsibilities:
  • Lead and coordinate investigations into incidents, accidents, and technical breakdowns, ensuring root causes are identified and corrective actions implemented.
  • Conduct onsite investigations, evidence collection, crew interviews, and prepare detailed investigation reports using root-cause analysis tools.
  • Manage each investigation as a project: define scope, allocate resources, track progress, and report updates to senior management.
  • Liaise with Marine, Vetting, HSEQC, Crewing, Commercial, and Technical teams to embed lessons learned into processes.
  • Monitor trends, repetitive defects, and near misses to drive proactive improvements and predictive risk mitigation.
  • Support development and delivery of technical training and competency programs for onboard and shore staff.
  • Maintain and audit technical procedures, IMS compliance, and digital reporting frameworks.
  • Promote a culture of learning, accountability, and continuous improvement.
Key Requirements:
  • Class 1 COC (Chief Engineer).
  • Experience on LPG vessels and Ethylene carriers.
  • Minimum 1 year sailing as Chief Engineer on tankers or 2 years as Second Engineer.
  • Ability to commit to frequent travels for work
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office; strong time management, organizational, and communication skills.
  • Independent, proactive, resourceful, and team-oriented with strong cross-functional collaboration.
