Neilson is dedicated to providing active holidays. We have over two decades of experience in operating exceptional sailing holidays. From beginners to experts alike - we make these holidays accessible to everyone. With our ever expanding fleet of yachts which we own ourselves, we operate sailing centres from several of our Beachplus Clubs as well as from our main yacht base in Nidri, Greece. 

As a Yacht Skipper you will manage all aspects of delivery of the Stay and Sail or Flotilla Holidays to ensure that all our guests have a successful and enjoyable stay. 

If you love sailing and have a RYA Yachtmaster qualification with plenty of sailing experience then this might be the perfect challenging and rewarding role for you. You will be working as part of a team to teach sailing to guests of all ages and abilities following the RYA syllabus. You will be responsible for briefing the guests with all information to optimize their holiday experience, manage the housekeeping and maintenance of the flotilla yachts and ensure a high standard of safety is maintained for both staff and guests.

You will be also required to maintain effective communication and good working relationships with the Yacht Manager, UK staff and local suppliers. Assist with training of staff and identify opportunities for coaching and developing the lead crew. You will also manage the spending and accounts to agreed budgets.

You will need to have a can do attitude with a hand’s on approach to your work as you may be required to assist in other duties within the flotilla programme. You will need to be an excellent communicator, be highly self motivated and able to work on your own initiative. You will also need to be an excellent team player but with the ability to work independently.
