About Us

TRUSTED BY THE PEOPLE WE PLACE

I had a great interview with Emily from Insignia Crew – she was kind, professional, and really took the time to walk me through the role while keeping the confidentiality of the yacht fully respected. I felt informed, supported, and valued throughout the process. I would definitely recommend Insignia Crew to anyone looking for a trustworthy yacht recruiter.

My experience with Insignia Crew has been nothing short of excellent, and I have to give special credit to Emily for her outstanding support throughout the entire process. Emily was incredibly punctual, attentive, and proactive in helping me in the process of securing my next gig onboard. She guided me step by step – from finding a yacht that ticked all my boxes, to preparing for the interview with clear, practical advice that made a real difference. I highly recommend reaching out to Insignia Crew if you’re looking for your next opportunity onboard a well-run, professional vessel. Thank you once again for all your efforts, Emily.

I can’t say enough amazing things about my experience working with Emily. Out of the blue, she reached out to me with an opportunity that turned out to be everything I’d been hoping for and from the very first conversation, she took the time to understand my skills, goals, and character in a very attentive and caring manner. Her professionalism, warmth, and communication were outstanding. Emily guided me through every step with genuine care, answered all my questions, and made the entire process feel effortless. What really stood out was the personally investment. Thanks to her initiative and expertise, I’m now stepping into my dream role, on a fantastic yacht with a great crew and an exciting program. I can’t thank her enough for thinking of me and opening this door. If you’re in the industry and looking for someone who truly advocates for you, look no further than Insignia Crew.

I can’t thank Insignia enough for the outstanding job they did in helping me secure my new position! From the very first conversation, Andrew was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to my career goals. They took the time to understand my experience and preferences, and then worked tirelessly to match me with the perfect opportunity. What really stood out was their deep understanding of the industry and the personal connections they have within it. They provided clear guidance throughout the entire process, from interview prep to contract details, and made sure I was fully supported every step of the way. The communication was always timely, and I truly felt like I had an expert in my corner. Thanks to Insignia Crew, I’ve secured a role that fits my skills and ambitions. If you’re looking for a dedicated, professional yacht recruiter who will go above and beyond to find you the right job, I highly recommend getting in touch with Insignia.

Very kind and professional Recruitment Agency. Thanks for your help Insignia Crew!

Lennox B

Emily Hiett from Insignia crew has been a huge support through my experience and career progression. After spending some time undecided on the next steps of my career, Emily provided me with the right information and guidance all throughout. It was a great pleasure to meet a yacht crew agent that had your best interest at heart. I highly recommend Emily and Insignia Crew for your next endeavors!

Bradley K

Andrew and I discussed a potential job opening and from that very moment everything just ran smoothly. He followed up with me after every interview, and made sure my terms were met by the boat. I joined my boat and a week after I received a check in message, to make sure that I’m settled in and that everything is fine. I can not recommend Insignia Crew enough. Absolutely a pleasure working with them.

Rene Y

An excellent small recruitment specialist who go that extra mile to provide an exemplary service to all parties involved. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending Insignia Crew.

Chas A

Insignia have been a truly great agency and they helped me find my first role as a stewardess incredibly quickly. Both Andrew, Annalise and Suzanne were thoroughly supportive, helpful and informative throughout the whole recruitment process and have also checked in regularly since my placement onboard.
Thank you!

Charlotte H

I’ve known Andrew from Insignia for several years now, and it’s been a pleasure. In the past, he and his company played a crucial role in helping me secure a position, and since then, they’ve been a reliable and trusted source of industry advice. I wholeheartedly recommend Andrew and Insignia.

Vincent S-J

Insignia Crew have placed me in 3 fantastic positions over a period of 7 years. Andrew Holme has become a personal friend of mine, keeping in touch regularly. Top man who I couldn’t sing high enough praises for. If you’re an ex military serving member this is the company to go through. Thank you Andrew and all Insignia staff! I wouldn’t be where I am today without your help.

Tom B

Thanks Insignia crew for swiftly squaring away my recent position. I would definitely recommend using this company if you’re interested in the yachting industry. Andrew Holme is not only a top guy, but extremely knowledgeable and provides sound advice with constant communication. Good work Insignia team!

Dan P

By far the most helpful and friendly recruiter I’ve had the pleasure of working with so far. Myself and my partner were placed into a perfect role by Annalise and have had nothing but positive interactions with her. She’s made us feel very comfortable and provided great insight into a new type of job role we weren’t fully accustomed to (yachting moving into land based). Would highly recommend!!

Rhys W

Outstanding from the start and through the continued support that has been exceptional. Myself and my wife started our new career after clicking into an advert and requesting more info. If you are interested in the Private Staff arena then do not hesitate to reach and speak to these professionals.  Thank you again.

Stuart B

A great service ticking all the boxes, really ideal for me being an ex member of the armed forces as I get a feeling of respect for my service and know that I can provide the company with what it is looking for in a Captain. Highly recommended.

Captain Mark O

An excellent company, with excellent communication! Would & do recommend!
