Extraordinary recruitment by Shaunna Campher

In today’s competitive maritime industry, attracting and retaining top talent is more challenging and more critical than ever. At Middle Point, our mission is to bridge the gap between international talent and maritime companies in the Netherlands and Germany.

Middle Point has been working with a large number of shipyards and maritime companies in the Netherlands and Germany for many years. That keeps us closely connected to what’s happening in the sector, not only today, but looking ahead. We often know which projects are coming up long before they become public. Which teams are being formed. Which expertise will be needed next.
