Captain - 55m+ S/Y - Private/Charter - Single Season Mediterranean

We are currently seeking a Permanent Captain to join a 55m+ Private/Charter Sailing Yacht .

The successful candidate will be responsible for managing the vessel’s day-to-day operations, ensuring the safety and comfort of guests and crew and maintaining the high standards of the yacht. The role is based in Europe, with the vessel currently located in the Eastern Mediterranean and scheduled to operate around the Balearics, particularly Ibiza, during the summer season. As the vessel is a Turkish gullet with recent refits, candidates should be familiar with sailing vessels and possess a strong background in sailing, demonstrating leadership and operational expertise for a vessel that operates with a crew of 10. The vessel rarely gets its sails up so operates as a Motor Yacht 90% of the time.

• Experience commanding sailing yachts of similar size (55m+)
• Proven leadership and crew management skills
