Just Be Maritime management services engaged by Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines

Just Be Maritime is delighted to confirm that its Officer Cadet Management Services have now been engaged by Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, for the recruitment to, and management of its Officer Cadet training programme.

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has an extensive and unique maritime heritage, originating in 1848 in Hvitsten, a small town on the shores of Oslofjord, Norway, where three Olsen brothers – Fredrik Christian, Petter and Andreas – bought their first ships and began an international shipping company.

175 years later, and now into the fifth generation of the family, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines operate cruises from the UK and offer inspirational voyages aboard three smaller, intimately-sized ocean-going ships, which sail to some of the world’s greatest and most authentic destinations, providing guests with simply unforgettable holiday experiences.

Paul Clifton, Head of Crewing at Fred. Olsen Cruises Lines commented “We believe that it’s all about the people, all of it, everything.  Cadets play a vital role for our fleet, and we have always been proud to support and deliver in-house training programmes to develop our Officers of the future.  We are looking forward to working closely with Just Be Maritime on these programmes, including their onward development.”

Don Millar, Managing Director of JBM, responded, “We are delighted that Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has selected Just Be Maritime for delivery of our management services in support of their cadet training programme.  We’re very happy to be working closely with Paul and his team in developing this training programme over the coming years.”
