About AmberI bring a personal, relationship-led approach to yacht recruitment, backed by experience in hospitality management, customer service, administration, and event coordination. Working in fast-paced environments has taught me the value of building strong relationships, staying organised under pressure, and delivering exceptional service with attention to detail.

My hospitality background has shaped my ability to read people, think proactively, and manage competing priorities while maintaining a high standard of professionalism. I thrive in busy, people-focused environments and bring energy, resilience, and a genuine passion for helping others succeed.

I’m passionate about helping people find exciting career opportunities and enjoy taking the time to understand each individual’s experience, aspirations, and personality. I believe that successful recruitment is about more than simply matching a CV to a role; it’s about understanding the person behind the experience and finding an opportunity where they can genuinely thrive.

As I build my career in yacht recruitment, I’m focused on creating strong relationships with candidates and clients, delivering a responsive, attentive and personal service.I take pride in my ability to connect with people, understand their needs, and ensure every detail is considered throughout the recruitment process.

Interesting FactsI’ve always had a strong sporting background, competing in athletics for 12 years and becoming Welsh 5K Road Champion along the way. I then spent five years playing rugby, competing in both 15s and 7s. Through 7s, I had the opportunity to play for some fantastic teams, including Bath Ladies, as well as compete at the Dubai 7s — an incredible experience that combined my love of sport with my passion for travel and new experiences.

I also spent eight months living in Uganda, which was another unforgettable chapter and gave me the opportunity to experience a completely different culture and way of lif

Where you’ll find me at the weekend?
At the weekend, you’ll usually find me making the most of the outdoors — discovering quirky coffee shops, exploring new forest trails, or heading to the beach with my partner and our rescue dogs. There’s usually a well-earned pub stop along the way! I’m also a keen runner and love exploring the South Coast on foot, taking in the views as I go. When the weather is on our side, I’ll be out paddleboarding and making the most of every opportunity to enjoy the outdoors.
