About Tash
Before swapping deck shoes for desk life, I spent six incredible years working on private and charter yachts. In 2021, I decided it was time to hang up my passport and come back down to earth, taking with me the standards, work ethic, and long-standing relationships that yachting instils.

With a strong background in hospitality, moving into recruitment felt like a natural next step. Over the following four years, I built my career in recruitment, developing a people-first, detail-driven approach while gaining a solid understanding of what it takes to place individuals into roles where they can genuinely thrive.

Combining my time on board with my newly acquired recruitment skills, moving into yacht recruitment felt like the perfect fit. In September 2024, I joined Bespoke Crew, where I successfully grew an exterior desk. During this time, I became increasingly involved with and intrigued by the land-based division, which was already gaining momentum and showing huge potential.

As the land-based side of the business grew rapidly, supporting private households, family offices, private islands, estates, waterside properties, and yacht management companies, I was given the opportunity to bring all my experience together and take the division forward. From senior household staff and operational professionals to shore-side roles within management structures, my focus is on bridging the gap between lifestyle-driven service and professional operations.

What drives me is simple: matching the right people with the right environments. Having lived the lifestyle myself, I understand what sits behind a CV, the long seasons, high expectations, absolute discretion, and the importance of cultural fit. Whether you’re building a trusted team within a private household or management company, or looking for your next step after yachting or hospitality, I’m here to make the process personal, professional, and effective.

Favourite country visited while in the industry and why?
Would have to be Sri-Lanka, it’s the most cultured country I was lucky enough to visit, we were based in the southeast for a month in between trips, so got to travel right through from Galle down to Matara which is a beautiful surf town, the locals were so friendly. We also did a big crew trip to Yala National Park which is Sri Lanka’s most famous wildlife park, it was incredible.

Funniest memory?
Performing Spice Girls “Wanna B” with the Interior Crew for a New Years Got Talent Special. I was Mel B and had to perform the whole rap chorus on my own in front of the whole charter crowd and crew.. It was as horrendous as it sounds!
