Yacht Industry Faces Global Labor Shortage

Yacht Industry Faces Global Labor Shortage With More Than 6,000 Yacht Crew Positions Available

With more than 6,000 yacht crew positions available, mega yacht owners are scrambling to find skilled workers to service their luxury yachts.

How did this global shortage occur? Over the last few years, the luxury yacht industry has grown by leaps and bounds. With 17.5 miles of luxury yachts under construction, about 6,993 yacht crew positions will be coming available; however, as the demand for crew members is increasing, the pool of qualified, experienced skilled workers is decreasing, creating a global labor shortage.

Are you an adventurous soul? Yacht crew positions provide you the career opportunity of a lifetime. The opportunity is especially enticing for people already accustomed to the service industry. If you’ve worked in a bar or restaurant, making the transition to a sea-based service job is not all that difficult.
