Work with us

For over twenty years, EMSA has been serving EU maritime interests for a safe, secure, green, and competitive maritime sector.

From our Lisbon headquarters, we support the European Commission and the Member States across a wide range of tasks.

These include the decarbonisation of shipping, the prevention of pollution from ships, maritime safety and security, maritime surveillance, and the provision of advanced digital tools and services.

To carry out this mission, we depend on our best asset – our talented and dedicated staff.

When recruiting, we look for outstanding candidates from different backgrounds – maritime experts, but also administrators and IT professionals.

Diversity and inclusion at EMSA: our principles

EMSA recognises the value of diversity and inclusion in the workplace, believing it fosters a productive environment where everyone feels appreciated, their skills maximised, and organisational objectives achieved. EMSA does not discriminate against anyone on grounds of gender, race, colour, ethnic or social origin, genetic features, religion, or belief, political or any other opinion, membership of a national minority, property, birth, disability, or sexual orientation. EMSA offers measures to reconcile professional and private life and will provide reasonable adjustments at the workplace for persons with disabilities.

EMSA is an equal opportunities employer and takes care to avoid any form of discrimination. As part of its commitment to diversity, gender equality, and geographical distribution, EMSA strongly encourages applications from female candidates and applies a policy of equal opportunities.

EMSA is committed to sustainability at work, and our working methods reflect that. We are registered under the European Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS), incorporating the environmental management standards of ISO 14001. Here in EMSA, our colleagues are a vital part of our sustainability journey.

Working at EMSA is dynamic and rewarding. If you join us, you’ll make a real contribution to building a stronger, safer, more sustainable maritime sector in Europe, and you’ll be working alongside a talented team of dedicated professionals recruited from all across the EU
