Summary

We are seeking a very experienced and confident Chief Stewardess to join a 77m private expedition yacht for a temporary contract from approximately 12th June to mid-September. This is a high-profile vessel with very demanding clients, so we are looking for a candidate with proven ability to lead a strong interior team while maintaining impeccable service standards under pressure.

This is not a typical seasonal role—it's an excellent opportunity for a high-performing Chief Stew to join an exciting program and potentially transition into a permanent contract from January 2026, based on performance and team fit.

The ideal candidate will have substantial experience in a senior interior leadership role on yachts over 70m, with prior experience on expedition vessels considered a strong advantage. You must be confident managing a busy and high-standard interior operation, able to lead and train your team with clarity and calmness, and demonstrate exceptional guest service, discretion, and organizational skill.

Excellent communication, resilience, and attention to detail are essential in this role. You will be working alongside a professional and motivated crew, within a dynamic and fast-paced environment.

Competitive salary and conditions are offered for the right candidate.

All required certifications must be valid (STCW, ENG1)

This is a fantastic chance to step into a senior position on a serious vessel.

Only candidates with strong longevity and references in similar roles will be considered.
