Marine Jobs in Malta

Requirements vary by role. Senior positions such as deck officers and marine engineers typically require STCW certification and several years of sea service, while entry-level or shore-based roles may only require relevant technical training or port experience. Always read the full job description before applying.

Each marine listing outlines the required certifications, sea service hours, and any flag-state endorsements needed. If you have hands-on experience aboard vessels or in a port and maritime environment, you likely qualify for more roles than you think. Apply and our team will let you know.

Browse the marine positions on this page and click the role that fits your profile. Apply directly through the listing. Our team reviews every application and will contact you within a few working days to discuss next steps.

EU citizens need a valid ID or passport. Non-EU candidates typically need a valid passport, a signed job offer, and must apply for a work permit before starting. Seafarers may also need valid STCW certificates, a seafarer's book, and a medical fitness certificate. Our team will guide you through the exact requirements for your situation.

It depends on the role. Seagoing positions such as officers, engineers, and ratings require valid STCW certification. Shore-based marine roles — such as port agents, marine surveyors, or logistics coordinators — typically do not. Each listing specifies the certifications required.

It varies by role and employer, but most placements happen within 2 to 4 weeks. We keep you updated at every step so you always know where your application stands.
