What employers look forFrom the Yacht Operations Manager guide
Management companies in Monaco, Antibes, Palma, Fort Lauderdale and Southampton mostly hire people who have been to sea. A former chief officer, captain, purser or chief stew already knows how a yacht works and how much a refit should cost. Shore-trained applicants get in through coordinator jobs and a few years of learning on the job. Employers want strong Excel skills, clear written English and a working knowledge of ISM, MLC 2006 and flag requirements. French, Italian or Spanish is a real advantage.
