Choosing the right recruitment partner

Selecting the right recruitment partner is a critical decision – yet often a complex one. The market is fragmented, standards vary, and many providers operate without deep industry specialization.

In maritime, this matters.

This industry is global, relationship-driven, and highly specialized. Success depends on access, credibility, and a genuine understanding of how the market operates – not just the ability to run a process.

At MARPRO Group, we are not generalist recruiters. We are a maritime-native partner, combining industry expertise, an established global network, and a proven, structured approach to talent acquisition. This enables us to consistently deliver candidates who are not only qualified – but truly aligned with your business.

Most of our clients come to us through recommendations. That reflects the trust we build and the results we deliver. If you are evaluating us for the first time, we invite you to review our client references – each one a reflection of long-term partnerships and consistent performance.

We are happy to provide additional references tailored to your specific segment, market, or hiring challenge.

Choosing a recruitment partner is ultimately about trust.

We earn that trust by delivering with precision, transparency, and a deep commitment to your long-term success.

A selection of companies we’ve partnered with

“We were hiring our 2nd person in Denmark and we used MARPRO for this recruitment. Lasse and Jakob did a great job in finding suitable candidates, understanding Bearing’s culture and identifying candidates that were both a good cultural fit and met the professional qualifications needed.”

“Jakob has helped me fill positions in Stena. He is dedicated, can very quickly understand what we are looking for and has the ability and network to find relevant candidates in short time. In addition, I have also been really happy to use him to discuss various issues regarding potential candidates, and appreciate the insight and professional opinion he offers.” 

“In connection with a recruitment assignment, we were recommended to use MARPRO. From the first meeting, we sensed a good energy, professionalism and ability to understand our wishes and needs. This combined with the consultants humorous and winning nature made the whole process a great experience. We will definitely use MARPRO for upcoming assignments and give them our warmest recommendations.” 

“I have been working together with Marpro both for recruitment of employees and with their Partner Match Program to globally search for potential new distributors. In both matters Marpro has worked very professionally with our cases, by having short and effective seeking and selection processes. I can highly recommend MARPRO as a dedicated and professional partner for recruitment jobs.”

“Our contacts with the maritime specialist recruiter MARPRO go back quite a number of years, so it was great to be able to reach out to Jakob Le Fevre when we moved our entire operation from Rotterdam to Aarhus. MARPRO proved to be an excellent partner for who were able to attract 16 new, highly qualified employees in little over 3 months. They acted as a reliable, transparent and trust-worthy partner and we highly recommend working with them for all your employment needs.” 

“MARPRO has been assisting Weathernews for a couple of years to recruit sales people for our best in class weather routing solutions to the maritime industry. Jakob le Fevre’s persistent and positive energy actually led to me joining WNI in 2018. And now I have had the pleasure of the persistent and skilled recruitment process which led to finding the perfect candidate with the needed profile and who was not even available in the job market. WNI highly recommend MARPRO to match the right candidate with the needed experience and skills within a company in the maritime industry.” 

“As a scale-up business it is crucial for BAWAT to attract the best people at the right pace. MARPRO has in a short amount of time assisted us hiring three maritime specialists. The process was fast, well-managed and with a result of several relevant candidates for the open positions. During the process MARPRO has also invested time to understand BAWAT’s company culture in order to better search for the right candidates for our future growth. We will use MARPRO again.” 

“Marpro Search & Selection has been Hans Buch´s partner in the process of recruiting employees to the marine division. Marpro Search & Selection is a professional partner, with a strong network and a deep understanding of the market. This, combined with a high energy level, has brought us qualified candidates in a very short time.”

“MARPRO has helped us at COACH Solutions many times finding the right candidates within the maritime industry. Jakob and team have a deep understanding of the industry and are therefore well suited for helping in the recruitment process. I can highly recommend the recruitment services provided by MARPRO.” 

“We have used MARPRO Search & Selection and we are very satisfied with the whole process. They offer a competent and professional service and their network within the maritime industry is very impressive!”

“Thanks for a good co-operation, a constructive dialogue and a super easy process. It is not the last time we will use MARPRO.”

“Lasse helped us finding a key person in our Danish organization. Very professional! Highly recommended!” 

“Danny has great skills as recruiter and makes you feel at ease from the first moment. He has an informal way to communicate and sets the client in center. You understand quickly that he has a very good knowledge of the maritime business and has a large network. A great person to talk to who shows genuine interest and gets the results. I highly recommend working with Danny.”

“At BLÜCHER we were looking for a new Area Sales Manager and a Commercial Project Manager for quite a long time without finding the right candidates. The hire process is very time consuming and we used several month before handing over the recruiting assignment to MARPRO (the perfect decision). The lead recruiter was Jakob le Fevre whom we consider extremely professional, very dedicated, targeted and he supported us throughout the entire hire process. Thanks to MARPRO for the great job you have done for BLÜCHER.I will recommend MARPRO at any time.”

“I can only recommend MARPRO´s services. Jakob did an excellent job of mapping our requirements and matching this with potential candidates. I saved a lot of time on job posting, identifying candidates and doing initial interviews. I received a great overview of the most promising candidates and we were quickly able to select and hire the right person.”
