Applications are now open for our 2027 cadet programme, offering young people a structured route into a professional career at sea in the deck and engine departments.

About the programme

Cadets complete their required sea service on board vessels under Kyma’s management, supported by experienced officers who act as mentors. Training follows a structured record book, so that each cadet builds the knowledge and practical skills needed for their first certificate of competency.

Who can apply

  • Students or graduates of a recognised maritime academy
  • Deck or engine cadets who need sea service to complete their studies
  • A valid medical fitness certificate and basic STCW safety training
  • Good command of English and a strong commitment to safety

Kyma Shipping does not charge seafarers or cadets any fee for recruitment or placement.
