Shipyards and maritime companies in the Netherlands and Germany rely on Middle Point to connect them with these specialists. This blog highlights the kinds of roles our engineers fulfil and why they are in such demand across the maritime industry.

The engineering backbone

Engineers are at the heart of every build. Middle Point works with shipyards and design offices that rely on specialists like naval architecture, structural design, mechanical and piping systems, electrical and automation, and the intricate details of luxury yacht interiors.

In addition, there is steady demand for disciplines like HVAC, systems and weight engineering, which ensure vessels perform safely and efficiently.

The list of roles is much longer than can be mentioned here, so if you recognise yourself in this type of expertise, reach out to Middle Point to explore where you might fit.

Offshore expertise

The offshore sector requires a unique combination of technical precision and resilience. Middle Point supports leading companies in oil & gas, offshore wind and energy transition projects with experts in structural and installation engineering, electrical and instrumentation, safety and quality, and multidisciplinary project coordination. Offshore specialists ensure assets remain safe, efficient and prepared for the demands of future energy projects.

Where innovation meets expertise

Projects are becoming more complex. Sustainability, digitalisation and client expectations are pushing the industry forward. That is why companies increasingly look for engineers and specialists who can innovate, from developing sustainable propulsion or smart systems to bridging design and production. These roles are crucial for shipyards that want to stay competitive and deliver groundbreaking vessels to international clients.

Leadership and project delivery

Even the most advanced design needs strong leadership to succeed. Middle Point also supports clients with professionals who manage the bigger picture: project managers leading entire builds, operations managers optimising processes, and team leads coaching engineers to keep multidisciplinary projects on track. These are the roles that ensure deadlines are met, budgets are respected and teams can perform at their best.

The number one home of engineers

Our added value is not only in the positions we recruit for, but in how we do it. For engineers, that means guidance in relocation, onboarding and long-term career steps. For companies, it means a trusted partner who understands the technical language of shipyards and the human side of recruitment.

We don’t just place people. We connect expertise with opportunity and make sure both sides can thrive.
