Summary

We’re on the lookout for an experienced Deckhand to join a tight-knit and well-established team on a 50m+ support vessel. This is a rotational role with a 3:1 schedule.

We’re looking for someone with a genuine passion for the water — ideally with a strong background in water sports (surfing, diving, or fishing - bonus points if you’re into all three). The vessel cruises in areas where these are part of the daily routine, and the Owner is fully engaged with it.

The toy inventory reflects that lifestyle, with five well-equipped tenders for everything from skiing and fishing to diving and coastal exploration — excellent tender driving in multiple propulsions is expected.

You’ll be joining a long-standing programme with real stability. The crew is multi-national, active, and professional, and we’re looking for someone who can slot in smoothly and contribute from day one.

Candidates with B1/B2 in hand and a Yacht Rating or YM will go to the top of the pile (although these are not essential to be considered)

This is one of the jobs you hear about but don't come around that often!

Sound like you? Apply now and let's talk.
