Successful year for Yellow Admiral

Yellow Admiral is a specialist leisure and commercial marine employment agency based on the Essex coast. Initially the business was built up around providing staff to the leisure marine sector, but with the global financial crisis this side of the business temporarily declined. While the design, development and build of superyachts has slowed the commercial side of Yellow Admiral’s practice, in particular the offshore renewables business expanded dramatically and continues to do so today.

Yellow Admiral now works with clients who are involved in the full project cycle of the offshore renewable energy sector.

Yellow Admiral has had a very successful 12 months. This year we have increased the number of vacancies that we are helping our clients fill by almost 250% and the number of quality people we have placed is very encouraging. With demand predicted to increase for staff with skills in marine, mechanical and electrical engineering, marine geophysics, offshore construction and marine support expertise, etc. we are confident that Yellow Admiral will continue to expand its operations.

The real challenge this coming year is to help address the serious skills shortages in the renewables sector; but with our contacts and the experience gained in over 20 years working with the marine and automotive industries, we are sure that we have a great opportunity to help our existing and new clients, achieve their staffing objectives.
