Director of Azimuth Nautical Solutions, Andrew Hair said, “I am delighted to launch this comprehensive portfolio of consultancy and training services to industry today. Our extensive experience and that of our partners as world class providers of maritime consultancy, education and training, enables us to deliver such wide-ranging and high quality service provision.”

“Worldwide shortages at sea and ashore of experienced, certificated personnel are intensifying the demand for quality consultancy services. At the same time, training is becoming more critical with increasing regulation, compliance issues and safety concerns. This active collaboration with key partners supports development of bespoke and tailored packages to address industry issues and better meet individual customer needs.”

Matthew Jaenicke, Managing Director of Dover-based Viking Recruitment and its Maritime Skills Academy, commented “Training and ongoing development of professionals in our industry has never been as important as it is today and we are at the forefront of this globally. I am personally very excited about this new partnership initiative and I look forward to realising the expected benefits and outcomes for our customers.”
