Since being established in 2013, Quay Crew has placed over 1,500 candidates on more than 300 prestigious superyachts and worked in partnership with some of the world’s leading boat builders and yacht management companies. The team, based in Bournemouth, UK, has 60+ years’ combined onboard experience, plus an additional 45 years’ recruitment expertise. United in our efforts to service both clients and candidates equally, we favour quality over quantity, making the right match through consultation, thorough due diligence, and verbal referencing - significantly reducing the risk and cost of a bad hire. This approach facilitates long-lasting and high-performing relationships for an exceptional onboard experience all round. From the bridge to the engine room and the deck to the galley, we recruit at all levels from green crew with certified potential to experienced Heads of Departments and Captains. With a dedicated New Build and Land department too, we provide complete recruitment solutions for the entire sector. Our mission is to not only attract but also retain the best talent in the sector through actively promoting diversity and inclusion, longevity and progression, both at sea and on land. We do this by following best practice recruitment methods and continuously improving standards through education, research, market insights and progressive partnerships. In addition to our third-party partnerships with organisations such as LegaSea, Young Professionals in Yachting, The Crew Academy and CrewPass, we also provide all placed candidates with free access to a 24/7 helpline run by qualified clinical psychologists at Mental Health Support Solutions (MHSS). Our partnership with Pinpoint Works provides clients with access to a specifically designed recruitment portal which gives a complete overview of all candidates whilst streamlining the entire process.
