Recruitment Solutions for Yacht Management Companies

The problem

Crew demand is seasonal. Recruiters are not.

Management companies need heavy recruitment capacity for a few months a year and very little in between. Carrying that in-house is hard to justify, and outsourcing it usually means handing your client relationship to someone else.

This is the third option: the search capacity sits behind you, and the relationship stays yours. Candidates are presented under your brand, and nothing is put in front of your clients under another name.

How it works

1. You take the brief. Your client, your relationship, your account manager.
2. The brief comes to us. Vessel, programme, crew structure and what has not worked before.
3. Sourcing and screening. Candidates found, spoken to individually and reference-checked with previous captains.
4. Presented under your brand. You receive a small number of genuine candidates to put forward as your own.

What you get

• Capacity that scales with the season instead of a fixed salary
• Over 30 years of experience of onboard experience behind the screening
• Every department covered, from junior crew to captain
• Permanent, seasonal, rotational and new-build crewing
• Strict separation between clients, with no cross-presentation
• Confidential searches where a role is still filled

Who this suits

Yacht management companies, brokerages with management arms, and family offices running more than one vessel. It works best where crew recruitment is a service you need to offer properly but not one you want to build a department around.
