What Sea Crew does

Sea Crew Manning Agency (legal name: Sea Crew Manning Agency; DBA: Sea Crew / Sea Crew Egypt Company) is a privately held Egyptian crew manning agency established on March 17, 1995 and headquartered in Rashid, Behira, Egypt. Operating with roughly eight employees, the firm recruits, screens, and places STCW-95, ISM, and GMDSS-certified Egyptian seafarers onto foreign-owned vessels including bulk carriers, container ships, tankers, offshore vessels, RORO, passenger/cruising, livestock, and general cargo ships. The agency holds Egyptian Ministry of Manpower registration No. 1240 and ISO 9001:2015 quality certification renewed on February 6, 2020.

The company's core capability is a curated database of vetted Egyptian seafarers produced by domestic maritime academies, screened against principal-supplied requirements. Beyond placement, Sea Crew executes the operational backbone of crew mobilization: visa processing, flag-state documentation, travel, OK to Board, and crew gear. Six discrete rank categories are actively recruited (Candidates general intake, Chief Engineer, Second Engineer, Master/Tanker Master, ETO, and Bosun), with role-specific experience thresholds and English-language requirements.

Commercially, Sea Crew runs a B2B enterprise field sales model targeting ship owners and maritime principals in Greece, Albania, Italy, Lebanon, and the UAE, distributed in English and Greek on the corporate website. Revenue is generated via professional-services fees on crew placements, with pricing anchored to principal wage scales and not publicly disclosed. A notable disclosed contract is a crew manning agency agreement dated April 15, 2020 covering 4 bulk carriers, 6 tanker vessels, 3 livestock vessels, and 8 cruising vessels. The agency is founder/management-owned with no institutional investors, parent entity, or M&A activity on record.
