We're not the typical staffing agency. Here's what makes OceanChiefs different.
Most agencies charge a percentage of the rate. The higher the rate, the more they take. We charge a fixed fee per hour worked. Whether the rate is €40 or €80, our fee stays the same.
Our fee is documented in every contract, black on white. Both you and the freelancer know exactly what we earn. No hidden margins, no surprises after the fact.
Post vacancies, track requests, and manage your crew, all from your own portal. No back-and-forth emails. No waiting for someone to call you back.
Every technician we present has done a video intake and personal interview with our team. We use our offshore experience to assess whether they're a real fit for your specific vacancy. Not just a CV match.
Posting a vacancy is free. You only pay when we've matched someone and they actually start working. No placement fees, no commitment.
If nobody in our network fits your vacancy, we don't say "sorry" and move on. We actively search, recruit, and screen new candidates until we find the right match. Or we tell you honestly that we can't.
We believe the people who do the work should keep the money. Not the middleman who does the planning and the paperwork. Here's what that looks like on every euro you spend.
Up to 30% skimmed off the top as a percentage. And invisible to everyone. The higher the rate, the more they take.
The technician keeps what they earn. You pay one fixed fee for the planning and paperwork we handle. All documented in the contract.
Fair pay attracts the technicians others can't keep. In a tight offshore market, that access is the real scarcity. And it's yours.
Fairly paid crew return to your project, campaign after campaign. Less churn, less re-mobilization, more continuity on your asset.
We don't earn a cent more on a higher rate, so we never push one. The rate you pay reflects the market. Not our appetite.
A fixed fee is honest, not cheap. Behind that one fee sits the work that makes offshore staffing actually run, and a network that took years to build.
Our 200+ technicians aren't a database we bought once. We vet them, talk to them, and keep the relationships warm. That work never stops, and it's why the right person is available when you need one.
Every agreement is drawn up exactly as agreed and signed before anyone steps offshore. No grey areas, no "we'll sort it out later". You and the technician both know where you stand.
We bill the way your finance team wants it. Your PO format, your cycle, your systems. Clean administration you don't have to chase.
Non-standard rotation? Unusual certificate package? Last-minute scope change? We adapt our process to yours, not the other way around.
And because we pay our people fairly and transparently, the best ones keep coming back. You get the benefit.
