What employers look forFrom the Yacht Safety Manager guide
A small management company may have one person covering safety, security and quality, often doubling as DPA and Company Security Officer. Larger firms with 30 or more yachts split the roles and run an HSEQ team with coordinators. On a 30m private yacht your contact is the captain and a basic SMS. On a 90m commercial yacht you deal with chief officers, ETOs, safety officers on board and the flag surveyors all at once.
