Yacht Crew Jobs

From crewing Super Yachts through to Yacht delivery and Yachting instructor jobs you will find it covered in this section.

There are many seasonal jobs on yachts that can open the door to a whole new career for the right candidates. The industry pays relatively well (with excellent tax breaks) and offers the chance of global travel.

All crew including engineering roles need to have the STCW95 qualification, it’s a bit like doing a food hygiene certificate before you work in a kitchen or offshore survival for the commercial sector. It is not cheap at around £1000 but unless you have this ticket you stand little chance of securing a yacht crew job. The initial outlay is more than compensated for by the lifestyle and wages that yacht crew enjoy. If for example you are a chef, you could go and get a great job in a ski resort but you will earn less and the job will more than likely finish come the end of the season. With the equivalent yacht crew job you will earn more for a longer period of time.
