View From The Desk – August 2024
- Posted August 14, 2024
Welcome to the latest SYR View From The Desk
If you would like to receive this update as a monthly email register here.
And just like that, it’s August – a time of year when either the industry is super busy or everyone is on holiday. August is a great opportunity for hiring managers and jobseekers to take stock of their current position and make key decisions as to their next steps before year end.
We always encourage discussion around recruitment in August as generally there is more time flexibility for everyone and we can really offer strong and informed advice to those who require it.
Building up to the show season, we’re preparing to launch some key industry partnerships and to really enjoy the various events that are being hosted across Europe.
As always, we’re here to offer advice and practical recruitment support so if you would like to know more about our services, discuss your career or how we can help grow your business, please do get in touch.

TEAM UPDATES
ED | CEO | ed@superyachtrecruiter.com
Design and engineering remain steady, though moreso at the larger end of the market. Small craft builders, especially those serial building, seem to be struggling as a result of industry challenges and we’re seeing more of a desire to seek out new employment by those caught up in this instability.
Creative design is leading the charge however, with a host of interesting roles coming online and some of our larger clients planning a more concerted effort coming into autumn.
CAD Designer – London
We’re looking for a talented CAD Designer to join a leading superyacht design studio in London.
Famed for their incredible design style, this busy studio has built a strong team and produced award winning yacht designs for many years. With a busy ongoing schedule of projects, they now seek a CAD Designer to join them, tasked with the technical design of their incredible concepts.
Joining the London office in a hybrid capacity (minimum 3 days in the office) you’ll be working with an existing CAD team across a wide range of projects, showcasing a solid knowledge of Autocad and a close eye for detail and accuracy.

SIMON | Senior Recruitment Consultant – Brokerage, Management & New Build | simon@superyachtrecruiter.com
With the charter season in full swing and many people on holiday, it’s inevitable that the job market slows a little from late July across August. I’ve been focussed on meeting candidates during this period and came back from a development trip to Monaco with an array of new contacts and clients, and will be announcing some new, formal recruitment partnerships with some famous industry names.
Keep your eye on the SYR socials for further announcements shortly. We’re already preparing for the upcoming show season and will be updating everyone on our plans for MYS including some special surprises! See you at a yacht show.
Technical Administrator
Are you an engineering graduate or a Junior Marine Engineer looking to enter the superyacht industry? This could be the perfect role!
One of yachting’s most famous names is seeking a Technical Administrator to join its engineering teams in either the London or Monaco offices. Supporting the company’s Technical & Project Managers, you’ll provide a range of administrative services including document management, report prep and writing, and liaising with external suppliers, clients and stakeholders. You’ll be diligent and organised with strong IT skills and a working knowledge of CRM and QMS software.
The company offers mentorship and career development, with a basic salary bracket of £30-35,000 DOE plus a full company benefits package. This is an office based role and applicants are reminded that they must have the legal right to live/work in either the UK or France.
