Recruitment Services
At Deckhands Down Under, we go beyond ticking boxes on a CV. Our recruitment team takes the time to understand your vessel, your operations, and the kind of crew culture you’re building. Whether you need a seasoned skipper, a reliable engineer, or a deckhand with the right attitude and experience, we make sure the people we connect you with are a genuine fit—not just on paper, but on deck too. We’ve worked with respected names like Sea Shepherd Global because we take pride in finding the kind of crew that click. We listen first, match second, and move fast—so you can keep sailing forward with the right team behind you.
