Döhle blends Filipino competence and German heritage to provide world-class service
As published by Discovery Reports | South China Morning Post
Helmed by leaders with a shipowner’s mindset that sets it apart from the market, Döhle Seafront Crewing (Manila) provides the best-in-class international crew management services to ship managers and owners globally. As a one-stop shop manning agency, Döhle Seafront has meticulously assembled a fleet of highly skilled seafarers to do just that.
“We supply companies with the most qualified Filipino seafarers committed to delivering the Döhle Group’s brand of service. We make sure to take care of our seafarers – providing them with essential training and upskilling to keep them competitive, and offering support to their families,” says lawyer Iris Baguilat, president of Döhle Seafront.
Döhle Seafront’s services range from recruitment, certificate compliance, deployment and repatriation, and cadetship program, among others.
As an affiliate of Germany-based Döhle Group, Döhle Seafront is backed by more than six decades of maritime services expertise. Adopting the tagline ‘German Precision + Filipino Heart,’ Döhle Seafront strictly adheres to international standards to ensure the quality of services it offers to its stakeholders.
As a testament to its commitment to the welfare of its crew and their families, Döhle Seafront understands the challenges of being away at sea and assures its seafarers that their families are also under the care of the company. Among its many welfare projects, the company established a crew and family program to provide courses and seminars in the areas of parenting, saving, investing and sustainable healthy lifestyles.
“We take time to connect with the families of our seafarers,” Baguilat said. “We explain what the job entails because there are many people unfamiliar with seafaring. We introduce ourselves so that when we speak on the phone, they can connect the voice to a face and a name – an actual human being. These relationships are important to us because they entrusted their family members to us.”
