Boost your Diversity with TURTLE.

TURTLE has won the

2023 Career4Sea Europort
Diversity & Inclusion Award

Deliver on your ESG goals? Talent shortage? Drive innovation? Foster inclusion?

 

Whatever drives you to prioritize diversity, TURTLE supports you.

We all know about the projected shortage of 90,000 officers by 2026*, increasing compliance requirements from various stakeholders pushing shipping companies to prioritize ESG practices even more. Or that mixed teams perform better and drive innovation. Look at the UN Sustainable Development Goals, again calling for gender equality and reducing inequalities.



TURTLE, with its data-driven recruitment, is the bridge between your goals and the diverse talent pool you need to succeed. Join us in redefining the future of shipping, where diversity is a shared commitment.

There’s never been a better time to work with female seafarers.

As nearly half the maritime workforce is expected to retire in the next decade, the maritime industry is actively embracing women, recognizing their valuable perspectives and leadership. Changes in job profiles, driven by digitalization, offer more opportunities for young women. This shift fosters inclusivity and reduces the sense of isolation among seafarers. With an increasing number of women joining the maritime sector – a 46 percent rise since 2015 – the industry is becoming more representative of diverse talents and skills. Get to know our female pool.
