Teams, Delivered.
We supply trained crews of painters, welders, fitters, and general workers for ship repair and construction projects across Western Europe — fully compliant, rapidly deployed.
Romanian Expertise,
European Standards
Hartwell Maritime SRL is a Romanian workforce solutions company specializing in the maritime and shipbuilding sector. We recruit, select, and deploy teams of skilled and semi-skilled workers for ship repair, renovation, construction, and maintenance projects across Western Europe.
Founded by experienced professionals with backgrounds in engineering, operations management, and international business, we bridge the gap between Western Europe's chronic labour shortage and Romania's available, motivated workforce.
