Lynette becomes our first female captain
Captain Bryson is a Master of the Stena Adventurer, one of the largest vessels in our fleet, serving a key route between Dublin and Holyhead.
She joined the company in 2017 and now leads a bridge team of female officers.
Stena Line is working hard to recruit more women in management roles across the business. We have set a target of appointing 30% female managers by the end of 2022.
Margareta Jensen Dickson, Chief People and Communications Officer at Stena Line, explains:
‘The shipping sector is in a jobs crisis and there is a shortage of people in every part of the industry. Onboard roles can no longer be seen as a male domain. With the appointment of Lynette Bryson as our first female captain, we have shown that women can and will succeed at sea and Stena Line will be here to support them.’
