Description

A private Family Office is seeking an experienced VIP Helicopter Captain for a yacht-based operation aboard a superyacht, operating on a dual-season basis between the Mediterranean and the Caribbean. This is a newly established operation offering the chance to help shape it from the ground up.

The Role

- Single-pilot and multi-crew VIP/VVIP flying for the owner, family, and guests (Airbus H135)
- Deck landings (day and night) on the yacht's helipad, plus operations at private and public locations across both cruising regions
- Close coordination with the yacht's captain, crew and shore-side operations team
- Full responsibility for flight safety, operational standards and passenger experience at the highest level of discretion

Roster

3 weeks on / 3 weeks off,



though in practice flexible around operational need — off time coordinated directly with the operating captain team rather than a rigid fixed pattern.

Requirements

- ATPL(H), current type rating or ability to obtain one
- Minimum 3,000+ total flight hours, meaningful twin-engine and deck-landing experience
- Prior VIP, yacht-based, or comparable high-standards operational background strongly preferred
