Our whitepaper highlights Mission 30, Anglo-Eastern’s initiative to accelerate young officers’ advancement and promote growth, accountability, and leadership. Maritime careers are shifting, with fewer than 25% planning to remain at sea long-term and promotions occurring later due to breaks and retraining.
Mission 30 aims for 30% of officers to reach management before age 30, meeting all standard promotion criteria. Supporting this, the Career Care programme provides personalised guidance and mentorship, while the STAR Award rewards early leadership.
Since launching, internal promotions have surged, exam participation doubled, and retention improved.
The company focuses on internal development, culture, and technology like digital career tracking and a Talent Acquisition Platform to ensure fair, transparent advancement.
CEO Bjorn Hojgaard says, “Technology will matter, but people will matter more” with systems empowering maritime talent.
