Master Bulk Carrier Jobs
What a Master does on a Bulk Carrier, the endorsements you need, and how to get hired for bulk carrier contracts.
The role on a Bulk Carrier
As a Master on a Bulk Carrier, you hold overall command of the ship and full responsibility for cargo and crew - with the specialised focus that comes with dry bulk cargoes with hold preparation and loading-sequence planning. Owners running bulk carriers prefer officers who already know the ship type and hold the right endorsements, so vessel-specific experience is a real advantage.
What you need
A valid Master (Foreign Going) Certificate of Competency, a full current STCW suite, and standard STCW with strong cargo-hold competence. A valid medical certificate and relevant sea time complete the picture.
