Testimonials from our Candidates

Thank you!

  • Insignia Crew’s unique understanding of Armed Forces personnel makes them the first and last point of call for placement within the Superyacht industry. I found Andrew to be very hands on and proactive with recruitment and finding me the best role, all whilst keeping me well informed every step of the way.

  • My experience with Insignia Crew has been exceptional; they helped with my CV, gave great advice of how the industry works and within weeks my details were aboard multiple yachts. There is constant comms and reassurance from Insignia Crew – they are the only company to even stay in touch let alone get you job offers.

  • I was introduced to Andrew of Insignia Crew via Katharine Callus of The Royal Marines Charity. She sat down with me and told me every course which I needed to complete to help make my dream of working in the Superyacht industry come true. Thank you to The Royal Marines Charity who were able to fund me and put me into contact with a man who knew exactly what to do and how to get me there.

Insignia Crew have a great knowledge of training organisations who deliver the very best Seafarer courses. I am very grateful for all the guidance I have received from Insignia Crew, if I had not known about and engaged with them, I believe I would still be looking for a job to this day.

  • Insignia Crew have made my transition from military to a superyacht career easy and stress free. Some agents fire and forget about you but not Insignia Crew, they continue to support you and keep in touch, are very friendly, professional and the biggest thing for me was that they are very approachable as I had no clue about the industry or indeed how it worked.

  • I feel very strongly that Insignia Crew offers amazing opportunities to only the candidates that they truly believe will represent the company well, which shows their level of professionalism compared to other agencies. I could not recommend their services highly enough and I very much look forward to working with them again in the future in support of my new career.

  • One of the great things about Insignia Crew is that it is founded by a former Royal Marine, who understands the transferable skills and competence of Royal Marines and the value that we offer Superyachts. Other agencies told me they did not have "entry level" positions. Insignia Crew told me I had a strong CV and were confident they could find me a job – they were right and landed me an excellent position.
