Connecting Latin America’s Top Talent with the World’s Best Cruise Lines
Introduction
Welcome to Selective Crew. Since 2009, we have served as the bridge between ambitious professionals in Latin America and the global luxury cruise industry. We are not a generalist job board; we are a specialized recruitment partner dedicated to helping candidates from Colombia, Mexico, Peru, and the Dominican Republic launch life-changing careers at sea.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple: To provide a transparent, safe, and professional pathway for Latin American talent to access the maritime industry. We believe that talent is universal, but opportunities are not always accessible. We are here to change that.
What We Do
We specialize in sourcing and pre-screening candidates for high-demand roles in:
- Luxury Retail: Partnering with major concessionaires like Starboard Cruise Services to staff duty-free boutiques.
- Food & Beverage: Finding experienced Sommeliers, Waiters, and Bartenders for lines like P&O and Cunard.
- Guest Services & Photography: Selecting multilingual professionals who can deliver five-star service.
Why Choose Selective Crew?
In an industry full of misinformation, we prioritize transparency.
- Zero Placement Fees: We strictly adhere to the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC 2006). We never charge candidates for recruitment, interviews, or job placement.
- Guidance First: From the first interview to the final visa application, we guide our candidates through the complex documentation process (C1/D visas, medical exams, and STCW certifications).
- Verified Employers: We only work with established, reputable cruise lines and concessionaires, ensuring our candidates are stepping into safe and legal working environments.
Our Story
Founded over 15 years ago, Selective Crew began with a realization: Latin America is home to some of the warmest, most hardworking hospitality professionals in the world, yet many struggle to find legitimate paths to cruise ship employment. We built this platform to close that gap. Today, we are proud to have helped hundreds of crew members navigate the hiring process and travel the world.
