Captain 40m Motor Yacht

I was first introduced to Sophie when she placed me on my current vessel. I found Sophie to be professional, efficient and truthful during the recruitment. I was so impressed by Sophie that when it came to recruiting for my new vessel I returned to her for help. She didn't let me down, she gave me great candidates, understood the needs of the vessel and myself, and I couldn't thank her enough for taking the stress out of employment. 
​
I followed Sophie's services across multiple companies as I trust her and will continue to do so as integrity in our industry can be hard to find.
