RECRUITMENT - TRAINING - COMMUNITY - AUTHORITY
Antibes, 2009. A British yachtie (Steve) was one year into his yachting career. Frustrated by the experience of finding work and available yacht jobs he set about founding Yotspot to change the way people found work, crew, and training within the yachting industry forever.
It was 2 years later when a chance encounter in La Ciotat led to Steve bumping into an old University friend Daryl who was working as Bosun on a 56m motor yacht. This serendipitous moment led to Daryl investing in Yotspot and moving ashore in the summer of 2013, setting up operations from his flat. Steve followed shortly thereafter, and both moved into their office HQ in Ocean Village, Southampton in 2014, leaving their sea legs behind them. Yotspot had landed.
The goal behind Yotspot has always been simple. Allow crew and yachting professionals to connect directly with employers, and for yachts to find great crew in a fast and efficient manner. Fast forward to today, and Yotspot is now the leading jobs board for the yachting industry. It helps to connect not only yacht crew looking for their next role, but also yachting professionals looking to further their career within the wider yachting community, both ashore and at sea.
With over 15,000 jobs posted each year and a growing database of 132,874 members, we are now working with many of the most prestigious super yachts in the world and the leading management and recruitment agencies.
We very much look forward to welcoming you onboard.
We hope to inspire a new generation of people into a career in yachting. To educate and inform people on different career paths and make applying for jobs as easy as possible. We aspire to become a trusted platform and leading jobs board in the industry for both jobs on yachts and shore based yachting opportunities.
