With over 12,000 seafarers on board at any given time, BSM maintains one of the largest pools of highly qualified, motivated and dedicated seafarers, who are equipped to meet the demanding requirements of their roles and are fully supported by 1,500 shore based personnel. Our wholly-owned network of Crew Service Centres around the world allows us to maintain close contact with our seafarers, to manage the recruitment and manning process as efficiently as possible and to achieve high retention rate. We use stringent search and selection methods to ensure that our employees not only have the required professional qualifications, but also the required personality and language skills. In addition, we are fully committed to the professional development and education of all staff. Structured training and development programmes ensure that crew skills and knowledge are continuously updated in line with changing legislation and industry demands.​
