A shoreside purser service providing administrative and operational support to superyachts.

Silverlining Pursers was founded by someone who understands the role from the inside. After years working on some of the world’s most prestigious superyachts, progressing from stewardess to purser, Jess developed a clear understanding of what happens behind the scenes, the pressure, the pace, and the expectation of flawless operations without margin for error.

On smaller and mid-size yachts, captains and heads of departments often balance multiple roles, not by choice, but because there isn’t the cabin capacity or operational need for a full-time onboard purser. The work still exists, just not at a full-time level.

On larger yachts, onboard pursers manage complex logistics across crew, finances, compliance, and guest operations. While highly capable, the volume of work often requires additional support, but not always at a level that justifies another full-time crew member onboard.

Silverlining Pursers was created to bridge that gap.

A boutique shoreside purser service, built on real industry experience. Delivering the same level of organisation, discretion, and precision expected onboard, without the need to increase crew numbers or operational overheads. We’re based in New Zealand, serving a select international clientele. 

Every detail is quietly taken care of, creating space for captains and pursers to focus on what matters most; a seamless experience for owners and guests.

Onshore support.
Onboard precision. 

Silverlining Pursers delivers the full scope of purser responsibilities, without the need for additional crew.

From crew logistics and visas to payroll, accounts, and guest itineraries, every detail is managed with the same level of precision expected onboard.

Our service is tailored to each vessel’s needs, with perfection as the only non-negotiable.

Experienced purser support, exactly where it’s needed. 

Support is flexible and scalable. Some vessels require ongoing assistance, while others call on Silverlining Pursers during busy periods.  

We integrate seamlessly with your existing operation, working alongside captains, heads of departments and onboard pursers to remove pressure from your plate. Expect top-tier organisation, financial oversight, and crew logistics, delivered flawlessly.
