About us

JobWave is an international maritime job and recruitment platform, with a strong foundation in Europe's key maritime hotspots. We connect professionals with leading employers across inland shipping, seafaring, offshore, and shore-based sectors.

Our philosophy is simple: we don't poach and we don't cold-call. Instead, we attract talent through targeted branded and unbranded social media campaigns — reaching the right people at the right time, and letting them come to us. This results in motivated candidates who are genuinely interested, not people who were pressured into a conversation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not seeing your question here?

Is my profile information public to any employer?

No. When you create a profile on JobWave, your details are only shared with our team. We will never disclose your profile or personal information to any company without your explicit consent. If you are interested in a particular company, you can express your interest by applying for one of their job openings. Only after you initiate an application will the employer be able to view your details.

In which countries and regions are you active?

JobWave operates globally, accessible anywhere with internet access; however, our primary clients are based in Western Europe.

Do I need to complete the full JobWave Profile, or can I just upload my CV?

You have the option to simply upload your CV to your profile. However, by completing the JobWave Profile, you can easily update your experience and details and generate a PDF CV tailored for maritime employers. We've observed that job seekers with completed profiles tend to receive higher response rates from employers when applying.

How does JobWave generate revenue when these services are free for job seekers?

JobWave earns revenue by charging employers for job postings, brand pages, and specialized recruitment services. We are committed to never charging job seekers for our platform or services.

Do you sell personal data or user details to third parties?

No, JobWave respects the privacy of our users and we will never sell or share personal information or user details with third parties.

I have found a job, do I need to cancel my JobWave profile?

No, there is no need to cancel your JobWave account if you have found a job. You can simply update your account status to 'Not looking for something new'. Our recruiters may check in with you from time to time to see how you are doing, but you will not receive any job offers
