Bespoke yacht charter broker HELM goes global with launch of Sydney office.

HELM, the British yacht charter brokerage, has today announced that they are opening a new office in Sydney, to help them better service their growing Australian client base.

HELM are impartial charter advisors with access to every fleet, worldwide. They specialise in crafting bareboat, skippered and crewed yacht charters across the Mediterranean, Caribbean, South East Asia, French Polynesia and beyond.

After two years in the London HQ, broker Fleur Hunt has made the move across the globe to set up the Sydney office. On the move, Fleur says "I'm really excited to take this next step and help evolve the HELM brand, offering a more personal service to our clients across Australia, New Zealand and the wider Pacific region."

"As we celebrate our 10th birthday, this is a really exciting moment in our history" reflects HELM co-founder Simon Morgan.

"I'm a proud Australian ex-pat, and I'm delighted that we are now able to look after my fellow Aussies even better than before, without having to battle time zones. Australia and New Zealand has always been a key market for HELM, growing to about 15% of our business last year, and Fleur is the perfect person to tackle the challenge of growing HELM down under. She brings an infectious friendly energy and drive that we know our clients love."

Morgan is particularly pleased that the HELM team can now cater to clients across the planet, having opened in the USA's east coast last year.

"We now have knowledgeable, experienced brokers on hand 24/7 across all time zones, so there's always someone ready to answer your yachting questions and help you squeeze every drop from your holiday."
