Summary

Chief Engineer required for a 48m Med based private yacht. The position is a 2:2-month rotational contract. Vessel will be heading into a winter period with a good amount of maintenance going on in the Engine Room. There is a massive electrical refit on the cards, so experience with this type of project would be a bonus. The Engine Room is quite old, and this is not an office job in the slightest. There are lots of hands-on jobs to work through so the ideal candidate will be someone who wants to get stuck into plenty of projects.

Skills and attributes needed:

·      Excellent mechanical and electrical skills/knowledge

·      Great communication

·      Organizational and troubleshooting skills

·      Good Hands-on mentality

·      Strong leadership and training qualities

·      Great personality to fit in with the rest of the crew

·      Fluent in English

Qualifications needed: At least Y3 Chief Engineer.
