Expert Training

SSY Trainee Programme

SSY boasts a proud legacy which goes back over 140 years. In that time, some of the biggest names in ship broking have worked for the firm. Indeed, it’s fair to say that SSY has helped shape the ship broking industry that we know today.

Through the SSY Trainee Programme, successful applicants will get the opportunity to learn from some of the most experienced names in shipping over a 12-month period. In addition to expert “on the desk” teaching, the trainee brokers will benefit from a range of educational seminars, networking opportunities, port visits and vessel trips.

Applications for the September ‘24 enrolment (London only), will begin in February 2024. The programme will be rolled out to our international locations in September ’25.

“Shipbroking is a dynamic and fast-paced environment. By being trained on the desk and in the classroom over a 12-month period, we aim to attract exceptional young talent into our organisation. Our ultimate ambition is to transform our trainees into the next SSY shipbroking superstars.”
