People development is a priority at GasLog and every manager’s job. We invest in reaching the potential of our highly qualified people through assignments, training and development. Since our IPO in 2012, we have developed and advanced our people to meet the demands of an expanding fleet and increasing performance requirements, attracting new talent and competencies from varied industries and diverse backgrounds to build our collective knowledge and expertise. Each year, we host several interns across our functions and offices, an investment in our future and theirs. The diversity of our onshore talent is a point of pride and we are working hard to replicate this offshore through schemes to encourage women into seafaring roles.
Our world-class cadet programme home-grows our officers and we look to attract the best from the market. Ship-to-shore assignments provide development opportunities and greater flexibility over career paths. Our state-of-the-art certified in-house training centre ensures continuous development and selection and promotion assessment.

Our strategy is communicated throughout the company so we all know where GasLog is headed and how each role fits into the bigger picture. Cross-functional teams collaborate on a wide range of projects and initiatives such as; winning new business; developing vessel improvements; and enhancing systems and processes. We run a series of in-house Workshops@GasLog, to educate and raise awareness of how the organisation works together.
Total rewards at GasLog are a competitive mix of salary, bonus, benefits, and stock ownership plans that motivate the right behaviours and align employees with the interests of our customers and shareholders. Flexible rewards allow employees to have a say in what best works for their own circumstances. Medical, life, and pension plans are fully funded by the Company.

An organization-wide culture of safety and environmental awareness, ensuring our onshore and offshore personnel return home safely at all times
Working collaboratively by utilising each member’s expertise and experience, based on mutual trust, respect and shared objectives

Looking to constantly improve through new ideas to attract new business and differentiate ourselves from the competition
Often described as family, we value collaboration and business results equally. Our intranet workspace, LogBook, keeps us virtually connected. Engagement surveys, coaching leadership, and townhall meetings ensure communication channels are kept open. Several events bring our remote teams face to face, including our bi-annual all-hands event. Beyond work-life balance, we invest in employee physical, mental, financial and social wellbeing programmes. Our main Piraeus office has an in-house gym and cafeteria where meals are home-cooked daily and all locations offer a full lunch benefit.
The safety and wellbeing of the people who live and work aboard our vessels is of paramount importance to GasLog. Living quarters, recreation areas, food courts, work areas, and world class communication systems encourage social interaction, the ability to keep in touch with shore lives, as well as privacy and comfort.
We constantly strive to improve the balance of service time and shore leave. To enable a one-team approach between ship and shore, we have multifunctional dedicated ship management teams, frequent management visits on board, and comprehensive pre- and post- service debriefings. Our world class cadet programme home-grows our officers and we look to attract the best from the market. Ship-to-shore assignments provide development opportunities and greater flexibility over career paths. Our state-of-the-art certified in-house training centre ensures continuous development and selection and promotion assessment.
