Leading modern classic yacht design and build company Spirit Yachts has announced it is hosting a Recruitment Open Day at its yard in Ipswich, Suffolk on Friday 6th June.
The recruitment drive comes in the wake of new orders for Spirit sail and motor yachts, including two new P50s, an R53 race yacht, and a C78 sailing yacht.
Spirit Yachts Managing Director Karen Underwood commented, "We are always looking for a pipeline of new talent to join our world-class team. With a healthy order book and a full yard, we are steadily growing to meet demand."
Spirit Yachts is opening its doors from 10am - 4pm on Friday 6th June for a tour of current builds under way. The company is inviting individuals interested in careers across boatbuilding, cabinet making, finishing, engineering, electrics, design, and naval architecture to visit the yard, meet the team, and explore potential opportunities.
Karen Underwood continued, "Whether you are an experienced marine professional, at the start of your career, or looking for a new challenge, we encourage you to come along. Working at Spirit means joining our strong team culture, with a passion for wood and a commitment to excellence - collaborating to create beautiful yachts we can all be proud of for years to come."
