COMPANY PROFILE - A BRIEF OVERVIEW

In God We Trust

Our Story Begins with One Man in One Room

In 2007, in the maritime city of Kherson, Ukraine,a young , driven and highly motivated former seafarer named Mr. Pavel Manchenko opened a small office with one desk, one phone, and one goal: to build a Ship and Crew management company based on trust, accountability, and human dignity. He worked alone. He made every call. He signed every document. And slowly — one seafarer, one contract at a time — The Marine MAN was born.

Today, Marine MAN is a Global Maritime Partner

750+ seafarers currently on-board vessels worldwide
10+ nationalities
50+ full-time employees
Over 2,200 seafarers in active rotation
Operational reach in 10+ countries
17+ years of uninterrupted service

What We Do
Marine MAN proudly serves as a reliable, flexible, one-stop crewing partner for shipowners and managers worldwide.
With a proven track record and deep involvement in the maritime industry, we combine advanced digital solutions with a human-centered approach — connecting highly qualified seafarers with reputable clients for long-term, successful placements.

Pioneering Digital Innovation in Crewing
We are proud to be among the first in the industry to fully digitalize the crewing process.
Marine MAN has developed its own proprietary recruitment software and implemented end-to-end digital workflows covering:

Sourcing & screening
Documentation & certification
Scheduling & rotation
Payroll & reporting
Flag compliance & crew analytics

This innovation enables efficiency, transparency, and real-time control — for both clients and crew.
Spanning continents, Marine MAN operates as a fully digital crew management platform, supported by a physical network of in-house recruitment centers in Ukraine, Georgia, Estonia, Poland, Indonesia, Türkiye, and the Philippines.

We understand both the complexity of global shipping and the individual needs of seafarers and shipowners. That’s why we build not just crews — but relationships.
