Quarterdeck is a global yachting academy and crew agency specialising in training and placing professional crew for sailing yachts, catamarans and power/motor yachts. We help people build a career in the yachting industry and we help yacht owners and operators find skippers, hosts, chefs/cooks, stewardesses and all-round yacht crew for individual roles or complete crew solutions.
For people who want to work at sea, Quarterdeck offers a clear pathway into yachting. Our academy trains skippers, hosts, chefs/cooks and stewardesses with practical, real-world programs focused on safety, seamanship, navigation, hospitality and guest experience. Even if you don’t train with us, you can register as crew in our network and be considered for jobs on sailing yachts, flotillas, charter yachts and private yachts worldwide. Many of our staff go on to work in any on-board position – from skipper or first mate to host, stewardess, deckhand or chef.
For yacht owners and yachting companies, Quarterdeck provides flexible crew recruitment and placement. You can hire a single skipper, host, chef/cook or stewardess, or we can assemble and supply a full crew for your yacht or fleet. We work with flotilla operators, charter companies and private yacht owners who need reliable, guest-focused crew for seasonal work, one-off trips or long-term roles. Our goal is to make crew hiring simple, professional and dependable.
With many thousands of skippers and hosts in our database and over 1,000 active today, Quarterdeck is probably one of the world’s largest suppliers of staff into the yachting industry. Whether you want to start a yachting career or hire qualified yacht crew, Quarterdeck connects motivated people with serious operators and delivers complete crew solutions for the modern yachting world.See more
