About me
With 20 years of maritime experience, 5 of which in the luxury yacht sector and 11 in the cruise industry on board the largest cruise ships including the world's largest, I aim to continue my career in yachting and would like to commit long term and secure a rotational Engineer position. In pursuit of a position on a large motor yacht, I aim to further my skills and knowledge and add to my extensive experience in all aspects of the technical operation of a modern vessel. While I can assure I posses the necessary people skills and demeanour for life on board, my integrity, honesty and loyalty are qualities I pride myself on. Alongside these, I have developed a solid set of communication and leadership skills to go with my ability to work within a team. Attention to details and self-motivation supplement my strong work ethic. I have great respect for my colleagues and have the ability to improvise and adapt to various situations.
