YACHTING SALARIES GUIDELINE <strong>2023</strong><br />
At the forefront of crew recruitment YPI Crew has utilised their unique position<br />
in the market place to create their annual in-depth industry salary report<br />
After two exceptional years of dealing with Covid 19 and<br />
the impact it had on recruiting, 2022 was a very upbeat<br />
and fast-paced year for yacht crew placement. The most<br />
significant trend was the extension of scheduled or rotational<br />
leave to positions outside of the engine room and the bridge.<br />
The search and placement market has changed and crew are<br />
increasingly seeking a harmonious work-life balance. Although<br />
yachting salaries and leave packages are generally competitive, we<br />
have found that yachts need to be increasingly flexible to attract<br />
the best crew. Flexibility with regards to leave has become a key<br />
factor for all departments and allows for a larger pool of candidates<br />
who are fully committed to the yacht, its programme and owner.<br />
Both the Deck/Bosuns and the Interior/Galley departments have<br />
witnessed a steady trend towards increased leave packages. For<br />
example, Senior Stews are now looking for a minimum of 90 days<br />
leave and 95% of the Chief Stews are looking for full rotation.<br />
Many Stew Head of Departments have come to realise that they<br />
too can benefit from scheduled or rotational leave that has in<br />
the past been reserved for the Engineers or Officer/Captains<br />
Departments.<br />
Additionally, and in order to compete with the larger yachts,<br />
an important number of yachts under 70 metres are now also<br />
considering increased leave packages to secure top crew.<br />
Please note that the salaries below (in euros) are an indication<br />
only of starting salaries and that the actual salary will vary<br />
depending on multiple factors; job specific skills, professional<br />
qualifications and experience.<br />
YPI CREW now offers a bespoke service for our yacht clients to<br />
assist with salary reviews and comparative analysis.<br />
