What employers look forFrom the VIP Guest Relations Specialist guide
Yachts hire people who have worked a guest-facing interior role for several seasons, usually second stew or head of service level, plus people from five-star hotel concierge desks, private aviation and family offices. Languages help a great deal, especially French, Italian, Russian, Arabic or Mandarin, depending on the owner. Captains want calm judgement, discretion, tidy admin and a contact book in places like Monaco, Saint-Tropez, Mykonos and St Barths.
