You and Us
So far, we’ve done a pretty good job: significant growth and market-leading solutions.
But we’re even more ambitious now than ever. With big future growth plans we have vacancies for new teammates with big talents and expertise.
In short: We’ve got big plans.
That’s where you come in.
To be passionate about our customers, we need to be passionate about hiring (and keeping) the best talent.
IS THIS YOU?: If you are talented and passionate about digital transformation, tech, platforms, SaaS, customer service, building and selling great solutions, we’d be super pleased if you got in touch.
Remote excellence – work from home
Two years ago, we transitioned to a fully remote working setup for all our team members around the world.
Working from home:
- Allows our team members to have the flexibility of working from home (knowing they are fully supported by their colleagues, managers, and service teams, like IT and HR)
- Means that Marcura and our group companies can recruit globally, wherever the candidate calls home
- We call our working from home practice ‘remote excellence’ because our ambition is to be the best possible remote organisation
The best part of the job
David asked the key question: what’s it like to work at Marcura?
Here’s a compilation of the answers he got from some of the leadership team here.
Marcura – diversity and inclusion
We’re 100% committed to preserving our culture of inclusion and diversity.
We’re all different. This makes us stronger as a company and helps to ensure we serve our diverse customers in the best possible way.
We’re committed to hiring the best people for the jobs we have. And then making sure they’re happy and can prosper.
We’ve made good progress on gender diversity, a particular issue in the shipping industry.
We welcome applications from people with disabilities, who may appreciate the flexibility of our remote excellence policy (work from home).
So, if you see a job you think fits your skills and experience, we’d love to hear from you.
Our teams and talent around the world
Jens explains how having a global but localised team has enabled us to stay close to our customers through our remote excellence (RX) initiative.

Marcura: a local company
At Marcura, we have a broad global network. At the same time keeping local relationships with customers where they are and where they operate is vital.
Jens shares his views on why it’s important for us to stay close to our customers and how we do it.
Marcura and the bigger picture
We’ve already described how, like many global tech platforms, we continue to develop solutions that drive big increases in productivity and enhance the working lives of people in maritime.
We do this by automating (i.e. removing) many repetitive, tedious, manual tasks.
Our solutions have other positive impacts of which we are very proud.
Here are just two examples:
MarTrust is increasing seafarer welfare
There are over a million seafarers in the world, doing a sometimes-dangerous job, far away from their family.
The process of paying them and then enabling them to send funds home is fraught with many complications and risks.
The MarTrust e-wallet comprehensively solves these problems leading to increased seafarer welfare.
It’s one less thing for them to worry about when they’re away from home.
And, to them (and us), that’s really important.
PortLog and the environment
Our PortLog platform allows ship operators to reduce waiting time and time in port and optimise the entire port call process.
This helps our customers with their wider sustainability strategy – increasing their vessels’ operational efficiencies thereby reducing fuel consumption and associated emissions.
Our values
