What employers look forFrom the Yacht Compliance Manager guide
Hiring managers want sea time. The usual profile is a former chief officer, captain or chief engineer holding an MCA CoC, who knows what an SMS looks like from the bridge and can talk to captains as a peer. Some come from merchant navy superintendent roles. A smaller group arrive from shore careers in quality management or maritime law, and start as compliance coordinators. Offices cluster in Antibes, Monaco, Palma, Southampton, Fort Lauderdale and the Netherlands.
