With a 65 strong team of specialist recruiters, the company is reportedly already the market leader for shore and seagoing technical and operational roles in the merchant shipping, marine and offshore industries.
Faststream CEO Mark Charman said: "We are bringing a new level of professionalism to the superyacht crewing market and will be applying the same high standards to superyachts that our blue chip corporate customers such as Royal Caribbean, BP and Shell expect in the commercial shipping sector. With the increasing sophistication of superyachts, owners need to know need to know that they are employing the best qualified and vetted crew and should not settle for a second rate and amateur service."
He added: "With highly qualified masters, mates, engineers, 2nd engineers, chefs, stewards/stewardesses and deckhands on our books, we can save superyacht owners time and money."
Faststream is an international recruiter which specialises in the shipping, marine and offshore industries. Headquartered in Southampton (UK), the company has offices in Oslo, Singapore and Fort Lauderdale. Faststream follows the example of competitor, Viking Recruitment, which is a highly established recruitment firm sourcing crew for both the cruise ship and superyacht industrys. With more recruitment firms expanding from merchant and cruise ship backgrounds it is certain that the approach to recruitment from all companies will become more thorough with the possibility of crew crossing industries becoming more a frequent occurrence.
