We Launch Our Crew Ambassador Program
We're launching a Crew Ambassador Program and are looking for active crew still working in or around the industry to join.
Father, son team, Scott and Angus Johnston founded Ecoworks in 2015 and have been championing the sustainable revolution in cleaning in the marine industry ever since. We now produce a range of cleaning products for the interior, deck and engineering departments of small yachts and ribs right up to 140 metre superyachts providing a one stop shop for greener cleaning products for the superyacht industry. We now have customer across the globe we know now is the right time to be forming a team to take us to the next level and grow sustainability awareness and action.
We’re passionate about sustainability and are committed to providing more sustainable products for the industry. We’re not able to be everywhere at once so we’re looking to build a team in the industry to support us and who better to champion our products and sustainability more than the crew who benefit from our products and know the industry best.
We're looking for ex and current superyacht crew to join the Crew Ambassador Program to be champions of sustainability and our better for the environment products. The program will be made up of superyacht crew who are still in or close to the industry. We’re looking for people who love the ocean, are passionate about sustainability and are based in key superyacht hubs. We're initially looking to recruit people in Palma, Barcelona, the French Riveira and Genova or nearby.
We're looking for outgoing, sociable freelance brand ambassadors to help in continuing to try to drive change in the industry through education of crew, better support of our dealers and personally being advocates for change. We'll be providing training and support. The roles will be part time roles as initially we don’t need huge commitments and we’re seeking those still active in the industry as the best advocates.
