The cost of a wrong hire

Why we vet so hard

When fit is missed

Mid-season departures and broken rotations
Conflict onboard, team friction, lost standards
Owner dissatisfaction and reputational risk
Wasted onboarding time and replacement costs
Urgent replacements under pressure

What an agent confirms

Capability — certificates, experience, technical level
Culture fit — formal vs relaxed, owner-facing intensity
Pressure tolerance — charter intensity, rotations
Hierarchy comfort — supervision, chain of command
Guest-facing readiness — presentation, poise, English
Discretion — private programmes and sensitive owners
