Ready to Rock the RoPax? Your Deck Adventure Starts Here

Ahoy future crew member 

If salty windy air, smooth teamwork, and the occasional seagull side-eye sound like your thing — keep reading. We're on a mission to recruit passionate, qualified, and safety-savvy seafarers who are ready to join our crew pool for upcoming adventures across the Strait of Gibraltar.

Whether you're a weathered Master with a compass in your soul, and coffee in your veins, a deck cadet fresh out of nautical school, or anything in between — we want to hear from you

About Us

We sail a fleet of RoPax and High-Speed Crafts (HSC) along Strait of Gibraltar back and forth — short routes, but big impact. Our crews are known for being professional, efficient, and occasionally very enthusiastic about coffee. Join us and become part of a tight-knit team that gets the job done (and knows how to enjoy shore leave).

The Details

Position: Open Application – Deck Department (future roles)
Location: Strait of Gibraltar (Algeciras is our home, Tanger is our destiny, Ceuta is our dream)
Vessel-based: Shore accommodation may be available (if you're lucky)
Contract: Rotational – usually 2 weeks on / 2 weeks off (if we won't call you earlier)
Apply By: Whenever you're ready

Who We're Looking For

We're building our talent pool with these key roles:

Deck Officers:

Master, Chief Officer, Second Officer, Third Officer

Deck Ratings:

Bosun, Able Seaman (AB), Ordinary Seaman (OS)

Cadets:

Deck Cadets with stars in their eyes (and charts in their hands)

A Bit About You

You're the type who can keep your cool when the sea (or the schedule) gets choppy and temperature hit the records. You adapt, overcome, and maybe even enjoy a bit of chaos before breakfast. You value safety, teamwork, and can spot a loose mooring line from a shadow.

And let's not forget, you've got:

Valid STCW Certificates

MLC-compliant Medical Certificate

Seaman's Book

Passport ready for stamps

Experience in rank & on similar vessels (bonus points)

FRB Certificate (huge step forward for ratings)

Marlins English test score (or just impress us in conversation)

Working at DFDS 

Join the movement and grow with us. 

Life at sea can be unique and rewarding. Enjoy a meaningful role in a remarkable workplace with the benefits of extended periods of home life.

Why Join Us? 

Because it's not just a job — it's a lifestyle. 

We offer: 

Competitive rotation contracts (but we may call you any time)

Friendly crewing teams who remember your name and coffee preferences

Career growth in a professional (but not too stuffy) maritime environment

Enough time off to remember what land feels like but not so to forget your lovely lady.

While you're with us, we want you to develop. At DFDS, we believe that development happens first and foremost through activities in the workplace. We will also offer training courses that can support you in your role, if needed. 

Be Part of the Movement – and the Deck Watch
