Superyacht Jobs

Matching quality crew with quality superyachts For over a decade, we’ve made it our job to find you the best superyacht jobs by taking a candidate-first approach to crew recruitment.

Reliable, responsive and realistic

Only by understanding your skills and yacht career aspirations can we successfully connect you with your dream role onboard whilst ensuring an exemplary owner and guest experience.

Being ex-yachties ourselves, we know how competitive the industry can be and how reality often fails to meet expectations, so it’s our mission to change that.

Putting equal emphasis on the interests of everyone involved, we are able to pair the perfect crew with the perfect superyacht jobs 99% of the time.

Roles we recruit for From the bridge to the engine room and the deck to the galley, we recruit for superyacht jobs at all levels from green crew with certified potential to experienced Heads of Departments and Captains. Specialist secondary skills also range from beauty therapy, massage and fitness through to AV/IT, watersports instructors, medically trained personnel and manual trades.

Interior department, bosuns and officers, junior to chief engineers, junior to chief stew, galley hand to head chef.

Our Promise

By putting your trust in Quay Crew, you can trust us to:

• Be honest and transparent – if you’re not suited to the role or the culture of the yacht, we’ll tell you; and if the yacht isn’t offering a competitive salary or package, we’ll consult with them too.
• Give career advice – on the roles you’re currently suitable for, how you can improve your CV and what secondary skills could make you stand out.
• Never send your CV on-spec – we’ll always speak 1-2-1 with a candidate before putting them forward for a role and follow up with verbal references from past yachts and employers.
• Communicate – at every stage of the process, whether it’s good or bad news.

Latest Opportunities

Testimonials.

“I think the reason that Quay Crew is (in my opinion and most of my colleagues’ opinions too) the industry’s leading agent is down to the culture of integrity, honesty and real care that permeates your company, and the careful selection of a candidate that will stay in the job. Long may it continue. I will never hesitate to use, recommend or assist Quay Crew for as long as I’m in yachting, and after.”

Chief Officer – 70m Yacht

“Having moved into the yachting industry from the commercial sector, Sam gave me valuable feedback on my CV and routes into the industry. I can highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for their next engineering position as she does her best to make sure that the yacht is right for you.”

2nd Engineer – 52m Yacht

“Having been in contact with Caroline since the summer, I felt the whole way through my search application process that she was completely on my side and has supported me and given me the confidence to propel my career to the next level.”

Chief Stew – 60m Yacht

“I would just like to take this opportunity to express how amazing Max has been in finding myself and my partner a position on a brand-new build. Max has been such a rock star in not just finding me one job but two jobs, which I am absolutely grateful for. It’s really nice to have a crew agency like Quay Crew who are reliable, trustworthy as well as always wanting to consider your best interests. The team at Quay Crew are absolutely exceptional and I will always recommend only the best for them. ”

Captain – 30m+ Yacht

“The best crew agent I have ever dealt with…always on the ball, super efficient, attentive and always available. There are so many agencies that only care about the yachts because they are the ones paying and completely ignore the crew so I want to thank you for all your help. ”

Head of Service – 100m Yacht

“I really appreciate the communication and commitment from Quay Crew and would like to mention that Tom has been incredible throughout the process. He had a vast amount of information relating to the role and yacht and knew exactly what would suit me. I highly recommend Quay Crew.”

Bosun – 60m+ Yacht

“Quay Crew was the most professional of the agencies I was using in my search. I had constant communication throughout and the whole process was personal. I’m very happy with the placement and would recommend Glen and the team to anyone. ”

2nd Officer – 65m Yacht

“What sets the team apart more than anyone else is the open and honest dialogue as well as the feeling that we’re working towards the same goal. Rather than just being another number or CV on someone’s desk, I established an amazing rapport with Glen so that he was able to really know what my goals were and where I wanted to take my career…and he was absolutely instrumental in seeing that I achieved that by placing me on my current vessel. At some point in the future, I plan to be on the opposite side of the interview process and Quay Crew will be the first agency that I reach out to.”

2nd Officer – 80m Yacht

“I wanted to say how fantastic Tom has been in finding a job for me. From first talking to him on the phone, he gave some fantastic advice about the industry and made the whole process feel calm and easy. His communication was absolutely exemplary and he went above and beyond to secure me a job. I would highly recommend Quay Crew to anyone.”

Deckhand – 90m Yacht

“I recently completed a 4 week trip through Quay crew on a yacht that Phil placed me on. I had applied for the role through other agencies but they refused [to put me forward] and Phil was the only recruiter that I spoke to who also saw flexibility in the job requirements. It’s a pleasure dealing with a recruiter that actually understands the role and the candidates suited for it. I hope to work with Phil and the Quay crew team again in the future.”

Night Navigation Officer – 80m Yacht

Lucas Urruty Officer of the Watch (OOW) "I started yachting 7 years ago, from not knowing the industry at all to getting my first OOW position last year. I remember in the first stages of my training I had nobody to guide me on how or in what order or priority to do my modules. I followed the yacht route, and up until now I have always gone back to Yotspot in my career to see what requirements, sea time and courses I need and in what order as a reference. I have booked at least 4 of my modules through Yotspot and even got my current job thanks to the site. It has changed the game in our industry regarding crew, training and so much more, highly recommend! "

Liubov Chunikhovska Ex Chief Stewardess (MY Luna, 100m) "If you're looking for a job or recruiting crew I personally think that Yotspot is the best service in the industry. It basically has everything you need in one place. Yotspot has been crucial to work with professionals and provides a high-level of support. Thank you Yotspot Team and wishing you inspiration to keep going with new ideas along with success!"

Jo Stepien Stewardess/ Masseuse (MY New Secret, 75m) "I have been using Yotspot to find new interesting opportunities since the beginning of my yachting career. I have chosen to look on this platform because it offers full spectrum of options that you want to include in your search such as temporary or rotational position. I haven't seen it on any other yacht job search site and I always found it super useful to specify your search like that and look for the best option for me. Yotspot is a time saver. I have found my current job on it and I am very grateful for that. I will definitely recommend it to any yachtie to create a profile and search for his or her dream job on Yotspot as it's definitely somewhere there!"

Adam Handyside Chief Officer/ Relief Captain (MY Madame GU, 99m) "Madame Gu finds the Yotspot site a very effective way of reducing crew placement costs. There appears to be an increasing number of crew who are using it today. The site can be accessed 24hrs a day 7 days a week. The more it's used the more cost effective it becomes. Most traditional Crew Recruitment companies have no such concessions. Yotspot is our first stop when recruiting"

Brooke Holt Crew Coordinator (Sea Shepherd Conservation Society) "Yotspot is super useful as it is available 24/7. The fact that candidates are ranked from most suitable to the role, to least makes it easier to sort the square pegs for the round holes! Each job receives an excellent response rate with often more than one ideal candidate to deliberate over. Over the last three years, we have recruited over 25 crew from Yotspot, all of which have been wonderful additions to the crew. I would certainly recommend anyone needing to hire crew to use the Yotspot service as the value for money is second to none. I can post with confidence everytime. "

Marc Micheletti Captain (MY Eileen, 50m) "I have been using Yotspot since its early inception and I have to say that I keep being very impressed by its simplicity and effectiveness. Not only is it incredibly cost effective, the simplicity of posting a position and looking for crew is amazing. I have also used it myself for looking for employment and it also works really well from an Employee perspective. I am a big fan, keep up the good work Yotspot, you have my full support"

The cycling sailors: Meet the pedal-pushers who keep the high-tech America's Cup yachts flying

David “Freddie” Carr is helping to keep Britain’s yacht flying over the Mediterranean waves at the 37th America’s Cup by pounding on the pedals inside his cockpit

BARCELONA, Spain — Pounding on the pedals tucked inside his cockpit, David “Freddie” Carr is helping to keep Britain's yacht flying over the Mediterranean waves at the 37th America’s Cup .

Carr is a member of the select tribe of cyclors, the “cycling sailors” almost hidden in the hulls of the powerful AC75 foiling yachts. These human workhorses use their strength and endurance to generate the hydraulic power needed to trim the sails and rotate the masts of their super-fast boats during the 20-minute-plus races.

If the cyclors’ legs tire, the multimillion yachts can be left flailing as a rival cruises away.

“I honestly think it is probably one of the more extreme sporting environments that’s ever existed,” Carr tells The Associated Press after a recent race. “I’ve been racing America’s Cups for 20 years, so I’ve kind of been all the way through from early grinding into winches into this now. And it’s not just the physical effort that you have to do. You have to stay switched on cognitively to kind of help sail the boat.”

The efforts of Carr and his crewmates have put INEOS Britannia into the challengers final against Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli starting on Thursday off Barcelona. The winner will get a shot at defending champion Team Emirates New Zealand for the biggest prize in sailing.

Carr described what it is like to be mounted on a stationary bike inside a nearly airborne yacht: Your heart is pounding, you are hot and facing G-forces on the sharp maneuvers, you have to process data from a screen, all while “building a tactical picture in your head” because you are blind to the action.

“It is bizarre, unlike any other sailing I’ve done previously,” Carr says. He knows how far the racing has evolved over the past two decades.

This is America’s Cup No. 6 for Carr.

At age 42, he has seen firsthand the incredible transformation of America’s Cup yachts from the typical mental image of what most people have of a sailboat to its current iteration that looks like a giant mechanical water-skimming insect — that, or a spaceship — with a mast and sails sticking out of the top.

Carr is a native of the Isle of Wight, where the America’s Cup started in 1851. The Englishman started racing on relatively traditional monohulls that went 10 mph (16 kph). The AC75s now regularly hit 60 mph (100 kph).

But he has adapted to the changes in design that have also impacted the jobs of the crew, shifting from using his arms to his legs.

Carr was there when cyclors were first introduced at the 2017 America’s Cup in Bermuda. And when they were dropped again in the 2021 edition in Auckland in favor of a return to the hand-powered grinders who spun winches. But with the 2024 organizers wanting to cut the weight of the boats, four cyclors are back as crews were reduced from 11 to eight members.

In constant search for improved aerodynamics, the crew are inside their own cockpits. And while the helmsmen peek out to steer, the cyclors are heads down out of the airstream.

And for Carr, that means the sport he loves has lost a little bit of the human element and physical camaraderie that he so much enjoyed.

“You don’t have any visual contact with anybody else, so you are solely relying on your communication from your earphones and the data in front of you,” he says. “You used to do a lot of that with sort of nonverbal communication, body language with a wink, a flick of the elbow or something like that. And trying to adapt to being in your own little world, relying solely on verbal communication that you’re getting through your headset, is really big.”

Keeping mentally composed as a team plays directly into the grueling physical demands of the job, since, Carr says, “The skill in being a cyclor is recognizing the moments where you can have a breather.”

As the boost in the role of data-driven technology has led to the specialization of the cyclor role, the gangway has been lowered to let non-sailors onto the fastest yachts in the world. Several athletes with rowing and cycling backgrounds are among the America’s Cup crews.

So Carr and his fellow sailors have had to welcome and train new teammates who, at least compared with them, are pretty much landlubbers.

“There is a group of new lads that have come in who can’t sail, effectively,” he says. “We’ve had to be very open-minded to upskill these guys. … (because a) team starts falling down when you’ve got little cliques, little nooks, little subcultures within it. And we’ve worked really hard to just stop that from happening.”

At least he can swim

Carr’s Britannia crew is in no way alone in having relative newcomers to sailing among its cyclor unit.

American Magic, the boat representing the New York Yacht Club that was eliminated by Luna Rossa last week, even featured a swimmer in Colton Hall.

Hall says what he could give in watts over the long haul earned him a spot on American Magic. The rest has been a quick learning experience.

“It’s unlike anything I’ve ever done before,” Hall tells the AP. “You don’t really even feel like you’re on a boat because you’re protected by the wind. You’re rarely getting wet if the sailors are doing a good job. You’re going fast, but to be honest, I can’t really tell the difference between going 10 knots and when we’re going 50.”

Hall had excelled as a swimmer and transitioned into cycling when he was steered toward a tryout session for American Magic.

“When I told my parents I was trying out for a sailing team, they were like, ’You don’t know anything about sailing. What are you thinking?” Hall says. “I had to explain the whole opportunity to them. It’s been really exciting to be a part of this. It’s just all-encompassing.”
