REACH has announced the launch of CRUZ, a crew recruitment platform designed to make hiring in the marine industry quick and seamless. CRUZ allows employers and crew to post or search for jobs in minutes, with instant access to suitable matches.

REACH is offering captains, management companies, owners and recruiters free job postings on CRUZ until the end of the Palma Boat Show, with no commission fees for placements and always free profile creation and job searching for crew. Beyond recruitment, REACH serves as a complete platform for the boating community, providing members with exclusive discounts, expert resources, and networking opportunities.

“CRUZ is a game changer when it comes to crew recruitment!” says REACH CEO and founder Matthew Hardy, who’s a former yacht captain. “We’ve taken a modern approach to recruitment and cut through a lot of the noise. For anyone looking for a fast, efficient, and fun way of searching for crew or jobs, we think we have it. Full members of REACH can post unlimited jobs, and if they also utilise the huge savings we offer through our partner network, then recruiting on CRUZ will actually save money.”

After the Palma Boat Show promotion ends, posting jobs on CRUZ will require a full REACH membership, starting at just €23.50/month or €235/year.
