Sorry to steer back on-topic, how about an officer specific mission. Meaning, you must have the type of officer aboard your ship for the contract to appear.
Mechanic: An Admiral Liner is stranded in (insert planet surface here) taking heavy damage from (pirates, debris or something). Diplomats are aboard this ship and are on their way to ...something... they need a mechanic to make (engines, sails) operational.
Political: A Jump freighter carrying some very important cargo is in limbo in star dock having the invoice rendered invalid by the customs officer due to (think of a reason here). We need you to bring this purchase order request signed and sealed by their own prince. Mediate the negotiations by your Political Officer.
Scout: A group of archaeologist uncovered some very significant ancient artifacts that they believe adds a piece of the puzzle regarding our history (or about the 7th colony). They are trapped in a cave (or lost) and in need of your assistance. Go to (insert wilderness here) Track their location from a weak signature from their transmitter to make it last longer waiting for rescue. Hurry before they run out of rations or the transmitter fades.
...or something like that.

Good idea!
First Mate: A freighter at coordinates X, Y had been waylaid by pirates from XXX Faction. From what we gathered in their distress call, these pirates are put off by shit-eating. However, we could not find any shit-eaters to scare them off. You are tasked to bring your First Mate to show them his ugly mug.

Some of these ideas sound pretty good - particularly the player class/hired officer specific ones. Would like to see some explorer style missions as their style of gameplay is pretty different to the current available contracts, and also some of the "transport x units of resource to planet" ones.

I don't know what to make out of your post BG. I'm gonna leave it like that. I don't touch things with turds on it.
