Empowering operators. Supporting seafarers
Delivering end-to-end maritime workforce solutions. Reliable crew for operators, sustainable careers for seafarers.
About us
At Polstrom, we deliver comprehensive workforce solutions tailored to the maritime industry. Our role is simple: dependable crew for operators, sustainable careers for seafarers.
A Full-Service Approach
We manage the entire workforce lifecycle: recruitment, screening, mobilisation, payroll, compliance, and demobilisation. By handling every detail, we reduce downtime, cut administrative burden, and keep offshore operations running smoothly.
Investing in Seafarers
We believe in people, not just positions. Polstrom supports seafarers with certification guidance, training coordination, and career planning. This creates motivated professionals who deliver more value onboard while achieving their own long-term goals.
Trusted, Compliant, Ready to Mobilise
Downtime is costly. That’s why every seafarer we place is fully certified, operationally fit, and ready to mobilise. Operators gain the assurance of compliance and licensing with the Maritime Labour Conventions, AMSA, Maritime NZ, and ISO standards, avoiding the risks of last-minute shortages.
Why Polstrom?
Reliable: A trusted partner supplying pre-vetted offshore crew.
Efficient: Streamlined mobilisation and administration that reduces delays.
Compliant: Every placement meets industry standards and regulations.
People-First: We invest in seafarers’ careers, not just their next contract.

We provide access to a pool of skilled crew across all ranks and disciplines. Every candidate is rigorously vetted through references, qualifications, and medical checks, ensuring you receive reliable professionals who can step onboard and perform immediately.
Mobilisation and Workforce Logistics
We coordinate every stage of mobilisation and demobilisation — travel, visas, medicals, and inductions included. Our approach ensures smooth crew changes, minimal downtime, and uninterrupted project delivery.
Compliance and Certification
We actively manage crew certifications, renewals, and regulatory requirements across Australia and New Zealand. With POLSTRØM, you avoid last-minute compliance risks and gain confidence that every placement is fully certified and operationally fit.
Training and Development Support
We coordinate upskilling opportunities so your workforce stays current with industry standards. For operators, this means fewer disruptions, higher safety standards, and crews who grow with your operational needs.
Payroll and Administration
We take care of payroll, tax, insurance, and contracts. Crew are paid on time, and you receive transparent, accurate invoicing, reducing your admin burden and ensuring financial clarity.
