⚓ Today is Merchant Navy Day – 3rd September 2026 ⚓

Today, we proudly recognise and celebrate the men and women of the Merchant Navy – the seafarers who work every day, often away from their families for long periods, to keep our country connected, supplied and moving.

The importance of our Merchant Navy cannot be overstated.

95% of the UK’s trade is transported by sea, highlighting just how dependent we are on the maritime industry and, most importantly, the people behind it.

At Jobs in Maritime, we have the privilege of working with seafarers and maritime professionals every day. We see first-hand the experience, dedication and professionalism required to build a career at sea.

Merchant Navy Day is an opportunity to recognise those serving today, those who have served before them, and the generations of seafarers who have helped shape Britain’s maritime heritage. ⚓

🔴 Today, fly the Red Ensign with pride.

Whether you're a seafarer, maritime employer, port, shipping company or simply someone who wants to show their support, get involved and help raise awareness.

A huge thank you to our Merchant Navy seafarers – past and present. ⚓
