MY Volpini & Volpini 2

• Worldwide

• 2nd Stewardess

  • Jun 2017 - Jan 2019

  Motor Yacht Volpini employed me in 2017 as 2nd Stewardess joining an interior team of four stewardesses. Volpini was a private yacht with live aboard owners during the summer months. I was responsible for the overseeing and training of junior stewardesses and working closely alongside the Chief Stewardess as a support and often covered her role whilst she was away from the ship. As the owners of Volpini upgraded to a new build vessel our Chief Stewardess transferred to Volpini 2 I stayed behind to organize the packing and shipping all the owners’ personal belongings to the new build vessel. After four months, I joined Volpini 2 in the yard again as 2nd Stewardess. For the setup of Volpini 2 my duties involved purchasing, accounts, inventories, creating procedure, detailing and set up of the new build. Volpini 2 was launched in June 2018 and went directly from the shipyard into a three month boss trip and then on to the Monaco Yacht Show. After the season I decided to seek a more challenging role so I could continue to advance my career. Show less

My duties involved a rotation of daily, weekly and monthly duties shared between myself and the second stewardess.
