EMA Addis Ababa

Founded in 2011, the Ethiopian Manning Agency GmbH (EMA) is a privately owned German company that facilitates employment of Ethiopian Marine Engineers with world renowned shipping companies to satisfy the growing demand of the international merchant fleet. EMA’s offices are located in Hamburg (Germany) and Addis Ababa (Ethiopia).

EMA serves as the connecting link between the seafarers and the ship managers. Independent from individual managers or owners, it delivers excellent service to a variety of shipping operations of various type and scale, may it be a large shipowner or a small shipmanager.

Many of EMA’s clients seek to retain and invest in high-performing officers for the duration of their career. The services provided by EMA ensure high retention rates of seafarers so that its clients maintain a stable, reliable workforce with company-specific experience. This service model ensures the seafarer will absorb the specific procedures and principles of his employer, and the client can follow his crewmember for the entirety of his career.

Through EMA’s collaboration with the Ethiopian Maritime Training Institute (EMTI S.C.), its elite professional Marine Training Program for engineering graduates in Ethiopia, EMA provides clients with highly qualified Marine Engineers.

EMTI’s education, certification and assignment arrangements fully comply with international standards and regulations such as Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW) and the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC, 2006). Moreover, all EMTI candidates must obtain a 5-year university degree in mechanical or electrical engineering and successfully complete university level courses in English.
