Chief Officer / 1st Mate

We have a great opportunity for a First Mate. Our client is looking for a solid, First Mate to join their 45m private motor yacht. Their current Mate is heading off to work with his partner (this is not a team boat) and they need somebody to join soon as they have guest trips coming up and will be a bit short. This is not a penny pinching program! Expectations are high - and so is the budget. Candidates must be even-keeled, easy going in their attitude and a team player.
To be considered, candidates must be happy to be local-ish to Fort Lauderdale. They can consider any nationality, but US and Green Card candidates will be included in the benefits and perks of the American company - and these are significant. Non-US candidates are not eligible for those perks, but the conditions are still very good. Tattoos are not an issue - as long as they are not on face/neck - this is still yachting! The program is currently local (South Florida - Bahamas) and they are planning trips up and down the east coast of the US. Requirements: Chief Mate 3000 STCW Basic Training Recent solid longevity Verifiable references 48+ months yacht experience. ENG1 Fully vaccinated (no exceptions)
