Monjasa Oil & Shipping Trainee, Shanghai
Would you like a career that takes you on an international adventure in the oil and shipping industry and where you will get firsthand experience from day one? Do you want to contribute to facilitating the movement of the world’s fleet and advancing global trade?
What does it mean to be a Trainee with us?
As a Monjasa Oil & Shipping Trainee (MOST), you become part of a global two-year programme that offers valuable insights into how we fuel global trade and take responsibility in the future of shipping. You will be able to apply your learning and contribute to the performance of the team right away, as a Trader within Monjasa’s core business.
You will be part of global rotations (2 x 1.5 months) across our offices such as Singapore, China, Japan, Greece, Dubai, Denmark, New York or Panama. This will give you first-hand experiences and understanding of different business contexts and cultures.
Your knowledge of our business areas will gradually develop day by day. You will gain further shipping knowledge through the Danish Shipping Education with the Danish Shipping Academy, and our own Monjasa Academy will take you through plenty of internal training as well.
In every office, you can expect an inclusive environment that oozes of family spirit and a multi-cultural vibe, and we also enjoy spending time together outside working hours. This will give you a feeling of being home away from home when you are on your rotations.
You will start in your home office on August 2026 and shortly after the adventure is kicked off in Denmark with a mix of school, teambuilding activities, internal education, and global onboarding programme.
