Why should you choose Lighthouse careers?

How might we aid you in finding a Personal Assistant in Melbourne?

Yachting is the supreme luxury experience, A synonym of distinctiveness, independence and privacy. The crew is trained to the highest standards.

With more than 2 decades of experience placing high calibre crew on luxury yachts, the idea to move yacht crew into private households originated from growing demand from both yacht owners seeking the same high standards of service on their private estates, and an increasing number of candidates wanting to settle down and move ashore.

We pride ourselves on our personal approach to recruitment. We forge long term relationships with both Clients and Candidates, thus allowing us to ensure we are placing the right people in the right roles.

We are dedicated to discreet and efficient customer service, and we strive to streamline the recruitment journey from day one. We are rigorous in our approach to screening, verifying references and verifying qualifications before placing a candidate with a client.

What Our Client Say

Adam Virik
Adam VirikCaptain 60m+ MY
Milica and Lighthouse Careers offers an excellent, personable and professional service. Following our initial interview, Milica worked tirelessly to secure me rotational Masters role on a SuperYacht, and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to fellow Captains.

I have known Milica for over a decade. In that time I have come to value her judgement and advice on Crew Recruitment. She has placed a number of candidates on my commands and she has also helped me secure my dream job! We have always had an excellent working relationship and I feel if I was more of an Antibes based Captain we would have been very good friends. I feel that she is discreet, honest and professional and that she will take this new venture on to become a reliable Crew Recruitment tool for any professional Captain.
Tom Filby

I wanted to say a few words of thanks for your all your time and efforts over the past few years, working on behalf of Axioma and indeed the other vessels I have worked on. You and your team has always been a massive help in trying to help find us the right candidate for the right job in this ever expanding and delicate industry.
Carl Westerlund
Carl WesterlundCaptain 101m M/Y
I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Milica, and using Milica’s services as a crew agent for many years at two different agencies. Her attention to what I’m looking for in a crew member, fast response and flexibility and understanding of feedback has always impressed me, and I look forward to continuing working with her also now when branching out on her own.
Mark Sinnatt
Mark SinnattCaptain M/Y GLOBAL
Milica is always my first call when looking for new crew. Milica helped me get my first command 3 years ago and ever since has supplied me with great candidates for all positions onboard. I can always rely on her judgement and honesty on potential crew and to act fast when I need. I wish her luck with this new venture and look forward to a continued professional affiliation.

I just wanted you to send you a little message to say that I am the happiest I have ever been on a boat, and in 8 years that is saying something 😀 so thank you very much for how honest you were with me when my options were in front of me and for helping me secure my dream job, you have made all the difference!
Alina C.
Alina C.Owner's Fleet Representative
Milica and I have known each other for several years. She never dropped her standards of recruitment over the time. Due to her industry knowledge, great candidates she has provided over the years and great sense of urgency and limitations a yacht can have, I decided to reintroduce and appoint Milica’s agency to represent our fleet of yachts in the yacht recruitment world. In no time she gained a thorough understanding of our new management structure and fleet needs. Having closely monitored her interactions with my on board teams before and during the summer season, it has certainly proved to be a great .
Brianna Stenhouse
Brianna StenhouseChief Stewardess M/Y GLOBAL
During current times where communication has become more and more technology-centric, Lighthouse Careers approach to call and speak one-on-one made them stand out from other Agencies. Their genuine approach and time took to sincerely listen and understand both candidates’ individual career goals, history and skillset, and the Employer’s needs, requirements and onboard crew culture resulted in a very successful match on all fronts. After securing me a new Chief stewardess role, Lighthouse Careers attention and care for detail were further reflected in presenting only high calibre candidates for that satisfied our search criteria

Thank you for thinking of us for the position as private island managers. We were very pleased when we got offered the position as it’s been a long time dream of ours!
Stephanie Wells​
Stephanie Wells​Chief Stewardess 100m+ M/Y
Milica placed me on my first yacht when I joined the industry, matching my land-based experience perfectly with the vessel. Since then, she has supported my career and seen me move to Chief Stewardess working within larger operations. She can always be relied on to send well-vetted, position-appropriate candidates. Her experience with, and knowledge of the 100m+ market, along with her focus on quality means she is the first person I call when I am looking for a role or crew.
Vesna Coklo
Vesna CokloChief Stewardess 70m+ MY
Throughout my 11 years in yachting, I have found Milica to be my go-to agent for jobs. Not only because she has a great reputation in the industry and great boats in her books but also for her care, kindness and professionalism. Very grateful to Milica for my placement onboard a very successful charter yacht during these uncertain times!
Meeli Lepik
Meeli LepikInterior Manager Project ENZO
Milica and I go back for nearly 7 years to the times when I started my journey in the yachting industry. During this time, we have been able to assist each other on various cases and tables have turned few times, depending on me looking for a new challenge (Project Sasha) or recruiting my own team (M/Y Mirgab VI, M/Y Maryah, M/Y Areti). Milica has always treated my staff requests with uttermost confidence and care. Not only she has found me some fantastic people to work with but we have also managed to handle sensitive situations with respect and dignity.
Mathieu Barbe
Mathieu BarbeInterior Manager Project ENZO
I would like to express mine at most gratitude for the placement of my current position as Interior Manager on a 100+ m yacht. All was well organised and monitored from your side. Great communication between the yacht, yourself and me. Everything was handled with confidentiality on every level. Therefore, I would like to continue working with you for all current and future crew hiring. I always get a quick response at any time of the day, evenings and on weekends. Very professional, fast, and efficient service! Many thanks for the past few years and many more to come.
