Description

Your main responsibilities will include overseeing the proper functioning of operations, the ship’s safety, your crew, as well as the cargo and/or passengers. You will be the officer in charge of representing the ship-owner and will be called upon to make the final decisions regarding the handling and overall management of the ship and its contents.

As Master Limited on Domestic Waters, you will be called upon to manage passenger and service vessels. However, rather than long journeys on large ships, you will be working inland, on lakes, rivers and along the coast. This is a highly rewarding, human-centered career where you can put your analytical skills, leadership and critical thinking skills to work.
