Private Access

PRIVATE ACCESS

Word of Mouth, Formalized.

The best crew have always been found the same way — through a call to someone you trust. Private Access works the same way, just faster and wider.

  • A captain who knows a good chief stew.

  • A first mate who worked with a great engineer last season

  • Deckhand knows of a chef that is employed but looking.

We work every channel — network contacts, direct outreach, crew who aren't posting their availability anywhere. Then we filter. What lands in your shortlist isn't everyone we found. It's the people worth calling.

How We Work

  • and a personal note on why each candidate made the cut

Compare: Agency vs Private Access

Traditional Recruiting Agency

Works on contingency — no fee until you hire. When placement happens, you pay 1–2 months' salary. For a senior crew member earning $8,000/month, that's $8,000–$16,000. Agencies earn more when crew earn more

Private Access

A flat completion fee, only if you hire. No percentage of salary. For a senior placement your total is $2,500, regardless of what that crew member earns.
