The series was contested between the defender Oracle Team USA representing the Golden Gate Yacht Club, and the challenger Emirates Team New Zealand representing the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron. Oracle Team USA defended the America's Cup by a score of 9 to 8, after winning eight consecutive races from Race 11 onwards.

HARRY BERNASCONI

“The recruitment process conducted by Tom from Winch Yacht Recruitment was seamless, professional, and highly efficient. I was impressed with the knowledge and support that Tom showed throughout the process, and ultimately I secured a fantastic position on a 100m+ thanks to his expertise, I would highly recommend using this agency to anyone. Thanks Tom”

ELLIS THOMAS

“I extend gratitude to Winch Yacht Recruitment for their exceptional support in securing me a position aboard a 60m+ vessel as Bosun. From the outset, their professional and dedicated team provided invaluable guidance and resources, tailoring their approach to my unique strengths and career goals. I had the pleasure of working directly with Tom, a great recruiter and I believe the director who handled the process with exceptional professionalism. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking support in navigating the competitive job market, Thanks Tom!!”

HEDLEY ALEXANDER

“I would like to thank Tom, for the huge amount of effort that he put into helping me land my next position. Without you, it simply would not of been possible. Thankyou for the endless emails to and from management and the captain ensuring that my transition was as smooth as possible. I did not for a moment doubt that everything would come together, and you handled everything with care and took professional to another level. I will highly recommend your services to all of my fellow yachties. Thanks Tom”

“I have used many agencies in the past, but none have been as responsive as this one. From the moment I contacted Tom until the very last moment of finding me a position, he kept in constant contact with me giving me regular updates. Its clear to see that Tom has worked within the industry himself, as he seems to know and understand exactly what to look for and asks all of the right questions. He was very honest and direct with the process and gave me some amazing advice on things that I was not already aware of. I will defiantly be using this company in the near future should I be looking for a new position, and would highly recommend Tom as an agent to anyone. Best of luck Tom”

INTERVIEW WITH…A SUPER YACHT CHEF

uk yacht crew

INTERVIEW WITH…A SENIOR SUPERYACHT STEWARDESS

HR Director

I am the HR Director for an international property firm and used 19 London to hire multiple members of staff, including a PA, Receptionist and an Office Manager, after our PSL agencies let us down. Helen and her team did a fantastic job – everything was seemless, their shortlist was spot-on and we interviewed every candidate they had sent. After losing confidence in agencies, 19 London have won me over and are now top of our PSL.

HR Director

High Net Worth Businessman

Finding a Personal Assistant can be a pain-staking job at times. I’ve had 3 in 2 years and am fed up of paying agency fees only to be let down each time. 19 London offered competitive rates and it really felt like they took time to understand my problem and find me a solution. From introduction to placement, it took only one week and it never felt like they were after a quick buck. I am super impressed. Well done and thank you guys. I’ll certainly be recommending you again.

High Net Worth Businessman

Chief Operations Officer

I was recommended to 19 London by another television production company, after they found a PA for their own CEO, and I am so thankful for that recommendation. The agency did a first class job and we could not be more pleased with our hire. Definitely one to watch!

Chief Operations Officer

High Profile American Singer

My friend, an actress, recommended 19 London to me after they found her a PA. I wanted someone discreet and didn’t want to be fussed over as I had to deal with this hire myself. Seriously – don’t use anyone else – these guys are top notch.

High Profile American Singer

Media Entrepreneur

19 London – you saved me! You got what I wanted straight away, you listened, you made me laugh, you made the process so much easier and less tiresome. My hire is worth every penny. I’ll be back soon!

Media Entrepreneur

HR Manager

Helen contacted me whilst we were half way through our hire process. And I’m so glad she did. It had taken us 5 months and over 30 interviews to get to the point we were at and no-one seemed right for our team. Within 24 hours of briefing Helen, she sent me a shortlist of 5 people, 4 of which we interviewed, and 2 of which we ended up hiring – within 10 days. Incredible service. Incredible agency!

PA to Film Actress

I was lucky enough to be recommended to Helen, a Director at 19 London, for my job search. I'd heard great things about 19, but was sceptical about leaving my position as I had been in the same role for 14 years. Helen was so understanding, very responsive, always kept me up to date and found me a new role within 10 days. I have now been in the role for 2 months and could not be happier.

PA to Film Actress

Personal Assistant to CEO of Global Advertising Agency

I'm always hesitant about recruitment agencies - I always feel ignored and at the bottom of the pile for every job I go for. 19, however, really made an effort to make me feel special and looked after. I found my dream job really quickly, my consultant was so lovely and fun and made the whole experience so easy. I need to find a second PA for my boss, and I won't be going anywhere else other than 19.

Personal Assistant to CEO of Global Advertising Agency

Office Manager for American Media Company

I love 19 London. They're young, cool, modern and they just get it - exactly what the industry needs.

Office Manager for American Media Company

PR Director for International Co-Working Corporation

I'd been in my position in PR for 8 years and needed a change. My partner recommended 19 to me after using them for her own job search. They have been incredibly professional and easy to deal with. I was well looked after and advised throughout the entire process and I have taken the next step in my career to a huge company and I owe 19 London for helping me achieve this goal.

PR Director for International Co-Working Corporation

Receptionist for Private Equity Firm

Best agency ever! Love the staff, love the company, love the brand - I had a great experience and will be recommending them to my network for sure!

Receptionist for Private Equity Firm
