What employers look forFrom the Fleet Manager guide
Most companies hire former captains with a Master 3000gt or Y1 CoC, or chief engineers with a Y1 or Chief Engineer Unlimited ticket. Usually they've spent a few years as a yacht manager first. A smaller number come up through the office from compliance or operations roles, or arrive from commercial ship management. Owners and their advisers want someone who has run a crew and taken a yacht through a yard period. They expect firm control of money and paperwork too.

What tickets should a Fleet Manager CV list?
List Senior seagoing CoC management background and ISM Code internal auditor training first, each with the date it was issued. Then add Master (Yachts) 3000gt or Y1 Chief Engineer CoC and DPA and CSO courses if you hold them.

Two pages at most. Give your last three jobs in detail and one line each to older ones.
Can I copy this example CV?
Use the layout and the order, then replace every line with your own details. Never list a ticket or a job you do not have: yacht employers check certificates and call references.
