The Faststream Recruitment Superyacht team is thrilled to announce that they have signed their 100th Superyacht client for which they will start recruiting the crew to include interior, deck and engine positions across the Mediterranean and Caribbean.

The Faststream Superyacht team launched in 2016 and has seen exponential growth, consistently signing new Superyacht clients who want to work with a market-leading maritime recruitment business. Here at Faststream, we can offer our clients a wide range of experienced candidates from within the Superyacht sector but also from our other specialist markets including the cruise sector. We are able to offer our international Superyacht clients around the clock service and our MLC accreditation means that they are guaranteed the most qualified candidates the market can offer.

The team is made up of a great mix of backgrounds to ensure they can give the best possible service to their customers. A combination of recruitment experience, superyacht industry experience, thought leadership, marketing and management skills is putting the Faststream Superyacht team ahead of the rest.

The Faststream Superyacht team’s portfolio of clients includes both private and chartered yachts, ranging from 20m+ catamarans up to 100m+ megayachts operating across the Mediterranean and the Caribbean. Even during the notoriously quieter periods in the Superyacht calendar where many yachts are in dry dock or in port for the winter, Faststream has continued to see requirements for new crew. This demand has included all levels of experience from Deckhand to Chief Stewardess and even Captains overseeing up and coming new build projects.

Kelsey Purse, Director of Shipping at Faststream Recruitment comments on the success of her Superyacht team:

Only in our third year as a Superyacht specialist recruitment team, we have achieved more than we ever imagined. Our tried and tested methods of recruitment has enabled the team to accelerate their success and establish themselves as the first choice for many Captains and yacht owners in the yacht crew recruitment marketplace. I am incredibly proud of the team and in particular, the last six months has been a highlight for us where we have increased our new client acquisition by two-fold.
