- What is the advantage of registering my details with you as opposed to simply applying for shipping jobs as and when they advertised?
Many shipping vacancies will never be advertised. To benefit from being considered for the career move you are looking for, register with us and we will be sure to review your requirements against any unadvertised shipping vacancies.
- I have been working in shipping for a while and am looking to change direction of my career. Can Kingfish help me?
Most definitely – we hope to encourage and develop talented people into different avenues within shipping, where possible using previous experience to their benefit. This furthers a candidates personal and professional development. For example, it is often possible to cross from technical to commercial jobs and if you are keen to do so then let us know.
- Will you be able to find me a new vacancy ?
We hope to help all registered candidates as far as we possibly can.
- I am not looking in earnest, but would be keen to move if the ideal vacancy became available. Can you register my details accordingly?
Yes, certainly. This is the case for many talented professionals and we are happy to be of assistance by having a confidential discussion with you about what you are looking for; when an opportunity arises we will be sure to consider you immediately before looking further.
- I would not like my details to go out to a potential client without my consent.
When you register we ask for your permission to send your details to clients, if you do not wish us to do so then please explicitly let us know. Integrity is one of our core values and we will treat your details with utmost confidence within the constraints of the recruitment process.
