Beyond moving people and goods across the country, 2GO is spotlighting the diverse career paths available in the transportation and logistics industry through its participation in the recent JobStreet Virtual Job Fair.
MORE THAN SHIPS AND CARGO
As the Philippines’ largest integrated transportation and logistics solutions provider, 2GO operates across a broad range of business functions, including freight forwarding, warehousing, supply chain operations, technology, and corporate services.
Through the event, 2GO highlighted the people, capabilities, and culture that enable an integrated business to serve communities, support enterprises, and connect markets across the country.
“Behind every shipment delivered, every journey completed, and every business we help serve are people whose work keeps the country moving. At 2GO, we are committed to fostering a workplace where people feel valued, inspired, and empowered to move the nation forward,” said Edcel Francia, senior manager of 2GO HR recruitment.
THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE NETWORK
Talent is central to sustaining the transportation and logistics sector. Businesses depend on efficient supply chains and reliable connectivity to reach markets and customers, and professionals across operations, technology, customer service, sales, and other functions play an essential role in keeping goods and services moving.
2GO has approximately 1,800 employees across operational, technical, and corporate functions, reflecting the range of expertise an integrated transportation and logistics network requires. Roles in cross-docking, warehousing, operations, and vessel management help ensure the efficient movement of goods, while teams in software development, finance, business intelligence, and marketing support business performance and innovation.
STRONG JOBSEEKER INTEREST
The initiative also drew strong engagement from jobseekers interested in the sector. Recruitment campaign data from JobStreet showed 597 completed applications during the promotional period, a 21 percent increase from the pre-promotion run rate. Job views rose by 12 percent.
A BROADER WORKFORCE PRIORITY
The need for a skilled workforce goes beyond any single company. The World Bank’s 2026 report, Ports, Ships, and Fuels: Maritime Efficiency, Safety, and Sustainability in East Asia and the Pacific, identifies maritime transport as a driver of employment and economic growth. It stresses the need to improve operational efficiency, strengthen safety, and equip workers with the skills a changing industry demands.
For the Philippines, an archipelagic nation whose communities and businesses rely on maritime connectivity and logistics networks, these priorities underscore the importance of developing skilled professionals across vessel and port operations, supply chain management, and technology.
By raising awareness of the diverse roles that support transportation and logistics, 2GO contributes to broader conversations on workforce development in a sector vital to trade, mobility, and economic growth. As the industry evolves, building a skilled and resilient workforce remains essential to keeping communities, businesses, and opportunities connected across the Philippines.
