Whitewater Recruitment are looking for an experienced Sportfish Captain for a confidential private programme.
This is a Miami-based position, so applicants must already be US residents and ideally based locally in or near Miami. No accommodation is provided while the vessel is in Miami, so this will not suit candidates looking to relocate or live aboard.
The role is for a privately used 43ft sportfish vessel, operating both from Miami and occasionally in support of a larger mothership programme. The vessel is used by the family for fishing trips out of Miami and may also follow the mothership during longer passages in US and Caribbean waters.
When travelling with the wider programme, travel, accommodation and sustenance will be provided. When the vessel is being used from Miami, accommodation and sustenance are not provided.
The successful candidate must be a confident, hands-on sportfish captain with strong fishing knowledge and proven experience running similar vessels. They must be discreet, flexible, locally knowledgeable, and comfortable working within a private family environment.
Bilingual English and Spanish is required.
The vessel is expected to be used around six times per month, with flexibility needed around owner usage and occasional travel.
Start date: July
Leave: 3.5 days per month, to be taken when owners are not present
Salary: USD 8,000 to 10,000 per month
Additional package: USD 750 monthly stipend for health insurance
