  • Provide coverage for other Crewing Coordinators during absences to ensure uninterrupted crewing and mobilization support

  • Working knowledge of offshore competencies, training matrices, and certification requirements, including medicals and regulatory compliance
  • Demonstrated ability to manage travel logistics, including booking through third-party travel agencies, organizing itineraries, and ensuring compliance with documentation and scheduling needs
  • Strong planning, scheduling, and organizational capabilities with the ability to manage high-volume crew movements and prioritize effectively in a fast-paced operational environment
  • Solid administrative background, including experience maintaining personnel records, managing data accuracy, and supporting payroll- or tax-related crew tracking
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to engage effectively with offshore personnel, third-party agencies, and internal stakeholders
  • Proven team player with a flexible, positive, and service-oriented attitude
