Our extensive experience and insights, as well as long-established good relations with Sail Training International, the ships and their operators and sophisticated understanding of the related markets in which we work, can bring great advantages to any event in terms of value, efficiency and quality.
Each service delivery area can be supplied on its own, or in combination with the others. In terms of ‘economies of scale’, this can be achieved somewhat by amalgamating Lesley and Ian’s specialist areas of Ship, Volunteer and Trainee recruitment to an extent, but Corporate Hospitality mostly stands alone because as you will see is slightly different in that it is mostly predicated on a commission-only basis. We have however pitched our services at competitive rates from the outset, with the economics of the event very much in mind.
Our wider experience is more extensive and encapsulates more sub-areas which our involvement may cross into. These are listed below. We would be happy to talk further about these areas and how we might support efforts for you and your organisation.
