For SalMar Aker Ocean, people are the most important resource. We aim to produce sustainable food in a safe manner that protects employees and the environment while creating value for society through jobs and business development.
Our employees should have a safe workplace with a strong focus on safety, which is essential for operating in exposed locations. Working in challenging weather conditions can involve risks, and a strong health, safety, and environment (HSE) culture with an emphasis on safety helps reduce the risk of accidents. This is a key focus at SalMar Aker Ocean and is crucial to ensuring a safe working environment for our people.
At SalMar Aker Ocean, we are aware of our responsibility beyond our own operations and the influence we have through the value chain of our salmon. We are committed to ensuring a responsible value chain where we hold our suppliers and partners to the same high standards that we set for ourselves.
SalMar Aker Ocean is part of the SalMar group and is therefore included in SalMar’s reporting under the Transparency Act. See the link below.
At Ocean Farm 1, no two days are alike. As a technician, there are fixed daily and weekly responsibilities, and the tasks vary greatly. You get to be a caretaker, electrician, machinist, mechanic, plumber, ROV pilot, crane operator, cook, welder, access technician, and do whatever else is needed. In this environment, you encounter many challenges, leading to a steep learning curve and a high sense of accomplishment!
At SalMar Aker Ocean, I have exciting and varied days where I have great opportunities to influence my tasks and further develop my skills. Additionally, I have fantastic colleagues!
In Arctic Offshore Farming, no days are the same. A typical shift at Norway’s most exposed aquaculture site turns you into a problem solver and demands many creative solutions. It is motivating to work on groundbreaking projects and exciting to collaborate with great colleagues!
At SalMar Aker Ocean, no day is ever the same – it’s exciting and dynamic to work on creating something entirely new in a small company. It requires both flexibility and creativity to solve the tasks, as well as stamina – so I have to use all dimensions of me!
At Arctic Offshore Farming, I have the pleasure of being part of something greater. A rewarding workday with skilled colleagues who push each other forward and upward – that’s motivating!
Working at Ocean Farm is rewarding; here, we are truly in touch with the elements, and no two days are the same. There is a high degree of freedom in all roles on board and great opportunities for personal development. We work in an exciting industry where limited sea area constrains growth, and our concepts may be the solution for utilizing new areas for the production of healthy food.
