Lighthouse Careers

Lighthouse Careers is a tech-enabled recruitment platform built for one of the most demanding talent markets in the world: luxury yacht crew and private estate staffing. Headquartered in Antibes on the French Riviera, the heart of the Mediterranean yachting industry, we pair a proprietary candidate-matching engine with deep human expertise to place exceptional people aboard superyachts and inside the most prestigious private estates and villas.
At our core is a structured candidate database powered by semantic search and AI-driven matching. Instead of keyword-filtering CVs, our system understands the qualifications, certifications, vessel experience, and cultural fit that define a great placement, surfacing the right captain, chief stewardess, engineer, private chef, estate manager, or house manager in a fraction of the time a traditional agency takes. Every match is then validated by recruiters who know the industry inside out.
The platform integrates directly with our applicant tracking system, giving owners, captains, and family offices a clean pipeline from sourcing to placement. Automated sourcing and screening handle the volume; our team handles the judgment, discretion, and reference checks that luxury clientele expect.
