Ian Taylor (46) brings many years of shipping experience and a considerable amount of ESVAGT knowledge to ESVAGT’s UK office at Dock Gate House in the heart of Aberdeen’s harbour area.
As a Chartered Shipbroker, Ian Taylor has been handling contracts with ESVAGT for North Sea Charterers for the past decade, experiencing ESVAGT’s competencies from a client’s point of view:
“As a supplier, ESVAGT has always stood out: A very professional attitude, in-demand specifications for the vessels and rescue boats, and outstanding and highly skilled crews”.
“Add to that a very innovative approach and a great understanding of the customer's needs, ESVAGT would often be my client’s first choice”, he adds.
Having ‘sold’ ESVAGT to clients for years, getting onboard full time was an easy step:
