Winch Yacht Recruitment is currently seeking an experienced Chief Stewardess for a 45m motor yacht based in Italy. This is a seasonal position on a single-season private vessel that operates with a charter-style guest turnover. The yacht runs with 8 crew, and the interior team consists of just two stewardesses, so we are looking for a highly experienced, confident Chief Stew who can lead from the front in a fast-paced environment. The owners have been with the vessel for over a year and a half and are described as extremely kind and respectful. They care about the crew and foster a friendly onboard environment; however, they expect very high standards and efficiency. They do not like repeating instructions and appreciate a crew member who is proactive, organised, and detail-oriented. You will be confident managing the interior as Chief Stewardess within a two-person team, and be comfortable rotating through housekeeping and service. There are often multiple guest trips that often run back-to-back (3–4 weeks at a time), so you must be capable of managing frequent guest turnovers (up to 8 guests, similar to charter operations).This is a hard-working, fast-paced program that requires someone who does not need supervision to complete tasks to a high standard. Please only apply if you have previous experience as a Chief Stewardess on similar sized vessels, 2/3 weeks cover of experience will not be enough.
