In the latest Sea to City webinar we feature a conversation with Helen Kelly, Director of Communications at Nautilus International and Sundeep Khera, Head of Marine, UK and Lloyd's market and Global Head of Hull at AXA XL, a major insurance and reinsurance company.

Mr Khera will share his own experience of making the transition from seafaring to a career onshore, with the webinar attendees being able to post questions throughout the session.

If you are an ex-seafarer looking for the next step in your career or currently working at sea but thinking of coming ashore, join us for a 30-minute-long conversation (live or watch a recording later) with a maritime services professional who has made a successful sea-to-shore career transition.
