Our History
AW Ship Management was established in 2014 by experienced maritime professionals bringing decades of collective expertise in ship management and technical operations. From our London headquarters, we built a reputation for systematic quality, technical competence, and genuine client partnership. In 2016, we established AW Crewing Services on the Isle of Man to provide specialized crew recruitment and management. Our integration into the Hadley Shipping Group in 2019 marked a significant milestone, aligning us with a family-controlled British shipping company whose heritage extends back to 1926. This partnership strengthened our capabilities while preserving our operational independence and client-focused approach. Today, we combine the agility of a specialized ship management company with the stability and perspective of a long-established British maritime business, delivering ISO-certified excellence across technical management, crew solutions, and comprehensive maritime services.
