Sr. Exterior Yacht Designer
Since 1961, Vripack has been creating thoughtful yacht designs from its studio in Sneek. With an international team of designers and specialists, we work on projects for clients around the world, shaped through close collaboration and attention to detail.
We are looking for a Senior Exterior Yacht Designer who understands that meaningful design is shaped through collaboration. Someone who finds satisfaction in exploring form, proportion, and detail, and in shaping ideas that resonate on the water.
You have a strong sense of proportion and balance, and know how to translate ideas into clear, well-considered solutions. From first sketch to final execution, you contribute to exterior designs that feel both intuitive and technically sound.
At Vripack, you become part of an international, multidisciplinary team, where designers, naval architects, and interior specialists work side by side - a setting where curiosity and craftsmanship come together naturally, and professionalism and enjoyment go hand in hand.
Key Responsibilities - Client-Centered Design - Engage with clients to understand their vision and translate it into exceptional exterior designs. - Concept Development - Create iconic, forward-thinking design concepts that balance form, function, and technical constraints. - Design Visualization - Utilize advanced design tools, hand sketches, 3D modeling, and presentations to bring concepts to life. - Innovation & Research - Explore new materials, trends, and technologies to continually enhance our design approach. - Collaborative Integration - Work closely with Naval Architects and other departments to ensure designs are both striking and feasible. - Project Oversight - Manage the full design process with attention to timelines, budgets, and uncompromising quality standards.
