Assistant Training and Compliance Officer

Are you ready to bring your marine expertise into a role where you can shape the future of maritime operations, support others in their development, and uphold the highest standards of safety and compliance?

We’re seeking an Assistant Training and Compliance Officer who thrives in a challenging environment and is passionate about sharing their knowledge. This is your chance to make a real difference—helping yourself and others to reach full potential.

Your role

This role offers a real chance to see colleagues to reach their potential. Few roles offer such a rewarding opportunity to make a lasting impact.

For yourself, there are progression opportunities to develop your skills to take on a more senior role in Marine or move into wider role in learning and development.

You’ll have:

• Proven experience in training delivery, ideally in an operational or safety-critical environment.
• Evidence of ongoing professional development.
• Experience in auditing and compliance activities.
• Ideally, marine background.
• Formal qualifications are not essential—your enthusiasm, experience, and commitment are what matter most.
