We help shipping companies win and grow the people within them

The Shipping Collective is a boutique consulting firm built by senior shipping professionals. We combine shipping experience with expertise in process management, digitalisation, and people development to deliver lasting impact.

Who we are

What sets us apart is our ability to make change and results actually happen by combining deep shipping expertise with proven methods in process excellence, digital solutions, and leadership development.

We are shipping people first – consultants second. Our team brings centuries (we are frankly talking about centuries, if you add it up!) of leadership experience across the industry. We’ve sailed, managed operations and commercial organisations, and led companies from the bridge to the boardroom.

Mission

We are here to help our clients win.

Vision

To be the consulting and training partner of choice for ambitious shipping companies that want to win and grow their people.

Our Team

Our consultants, advisors, and trainers are experienced shipping professionals. We combine centuries of industry experience and insight with a practical, sleeves-rolled-up approach.

Our Values

Integrity

We act with honesty and transparency in everything we do.

Client First

We always consult instead of selling, put our clients’ interests ahead of our own, and are willing to give away the business to build long-term relationships.

Impact

Every engagement solves today’s challenges and builds capabilities for tomorrow.

People First

We build leaders, teams, and cultures that thrive by honoring our clients’ work and putting their success at the center.

Courage

We tell the kind truth, enter the danger, challenge assumptions, and take the risks — even taking a bullet for the client when needed.

Vulnerability

We admit what we don’t know, ask the ‘dumb’ questions, make imperfect suggestions, and acknowledge our own limitations.
