At G&H Towing, we know there is nothing more valuable than our people. That’s why we invest in our employees’ growth, support each other in day-to-day operations, ensure that our vessels and equipment are state-of-the-art, maintain high safety standards, and promote from within the company.

We offer:

  • Stable and steady work
  • Industry-leading wages and benefits
  • The opportunity to work with cutting-edge technology
  • Advanced operational systems
  • Training and growth opportunities

G&H Towing tugs operate primarily on convenient 7-day on/7-day off schedules, giving mariners plenty of time at home with family and friends and the flexibility to pursue hobbies, education, and other interests. Our operations are located in ports along the Texas Gulf Coast, offering mariners the opportunity to build a career close to home.

G&H Towing tugs are operated by four-person crews. Crews in Houston, Galveston, Texas City, and Freeport typically work a 7-day on/7-day off schedule. Crews in Corpus Christi may work either a 7-day on/7-day off or 14-day on/14-day off schedule, depending on the vessel and assignment. Crews in Brownsville work a 14-day on/14 day off schedule.

G&H Towing is continually seeking qualified candidates to join our team, from recent graduates to experienced mariners. Whether you are just starting out, participating in a maritime program, considering a career change, or transitioning from military service to a civilian career, there are many paths to a rewarding career in the maritime industry.

In addition to hiring graduates of maritime academies, G&H Towing provides opportunities to begin in entry-level positions without a college or maritime academy degree. Mariners can advance through on-the-job experience, training opportunities, and assistance in obtaining required endorsements and credentials.

We are committed to our employees’ growth and advancement by:

  • Offering a Towing Officer Assessment Record (TOAR) program to help mariners advance while on the job.
  • Providing paid officer rating and license upgrade training.
  • Promoting from within, including tug Master positions, which are selected from an internal pool of qualified Mates.
