Are you an experienced yacht captain looking to be based in Perth?

Are you interested in working within a growing fleet of private superyachts?

Position Snapshot

MYS is on the search for an experienced yacht captain to go fully shore based in Perth overseeing the trips on a growing fleet of private superyachts. The fleet captain will work in tandem with the other fleet captain to cover guest trips and oversee maintenance periods. The vessels range in size from smaller 60' day yachts to the arrival of a 110' new build MY. Working in conjunction with a small management team, the captain should have excellent crew management skills, overseeing stewardesses, deckhands and chefs. The captain should have previous superyacht experience and be looking to be fully shore based in Perth with their own accommodation (open to relocations).

The vessels are largely used for day excursions privately with minimal guest numbers, busier in the summer months and moderately used in winter. The position could suit an experienced superyacht captain who has spent time in Europe or the US and is looking to relocate home.

• Captain time on superyachts
• MCA or AMSA captain tickets
• Strong crew management experience
• Drive time on a diverse range of vessels
• Sound technical knowledge
• Ability to oversee yard / maintenance periods
• Professional approach
• Looking for a land-based Perth lifestyle
• Friendly manner with guests
• Working rights for Australia

Ticket Requirement: Master 5 or Master 200gt (as a minimum)

Salary: Excellent salary package

Start: Flexible
