Summary

We are seeking a Captain for a Northern European–built 40-metre yacht.

The yacht is returning to Europe after an extended period in other parts of the world.

Applicants should ideally have a minimum of three to five years’ experience as Captain on another yacht and hold, as a minimum qualification, a Master (Yachts) <500 GT certificate.

In addition to being fluent in English, candidates should have a basic knowledge of German.

The yacht operates seasonally, for private use only, mainly in the Mediterranean, with the option of one or two Caribbean seasons.

This is a full-time position offering up to 90 days of annual leave. The salary is competitive, and a performance- and longevity-based bonus scheme is in place.

This is an excellent opportunity to work for a great family offering stability and loyalty to the right candidate. The previous Captain left after a long period of service to pursue a career change.

A Captain couple would also be considered.

Interested candidates are invited to apply with a motivation letter, full CV and references.

Due to the expected number of applications, we regret that only candidates meeting the criteria outlined above can be contacted.
