Blue Rocket Recruitment has recently launched our Free Career Starter initiative, to help promote the diverse & rewarding jobs & career paths within the logistics, maritime & shipping sector.

The industry has experienced a shortage of employees entering the industry for a number of years now, which has resulted in a significant skills gap & candidate shortages throughout the sector, from drivers & warehouse staff, through to freight forwarders and shipping & maritime professionals.

Bing a dedicated recruiter to the logistics, shipping & maritime sector we are collaborating with businesses who are looking to employ trainees for entry level roles, promoting their vacancy across various job related & industry platforms for FREE. Our aim is to highlight the variety of jobs available within the sector and attract a new wave of talent to futureproof the logistics, shipping & transport sectors.

Steve Wyeth our Founder & Director, who started his career as a Trainee Dock Runner back in 1997 for Allport Freight (now EV Cargo) & has been recruiting for the industry since 2002 is keen to be actively involved in promoting this great industry as a rewarding career path and has attended numerous events, hosted by Hampshire Chamber of Commerce, Maritime + Transport Careers programme  backing the incentive, and making it a known career choice for school & college leavers, and people looking to switch professions.

As part of this incentive, we are offering to promote trainee / entry level roles within the sector for free.
