Your trusted partner in global crewing.
Since opening our doors in April 2003, CSM Baltija has proudly stood as a trusted partner within the Columbia Shipmanagement family, providing world-class crews for a global fleet. What began as a focused effort to meet tanker operational needs has evolved into a leadership role as a premier provider of experienced seafarers from the Baltic States and beyond.
Our crews have long been the backbone of CSM’s tanker operations, consistently delivering fully matrix-compliant officers and ratings who set the benchmark for maritime professionalism and safety.
Driven by dedication and forward-thinking vision, CSM Baltija has steadily expanded its expertise and reach. Today, our crew placement extends beyond tankers to include cruise ships, passenger liners, ferries, and, more recently, the highly specialised sectors of LPG/LNG carriers, offshore vessels such as AHTS DP2, cable layers, and research ships. This ongoing growth reflects our commitment to competence, adaptability, and staying ahead of evolving industry demands.
Join us and set your sights higher — your voyage of excellence begins here.
Our compact yet passionate team is distinguished by efficiency, organisational strength, and an enduring drive to innovate. We meet challenges and changing tides with resilience, moving forward with accountability, respect, passion, sustainability, loyalty, and diversity at the core of everything we do.
These values foster growth and loyalty, enabling us to support shipowners and operators worldwide while ensuring the welfare, development, and career progression of every seafarer in our talent pool.
