Crew records
Profiles, contracts, passports, next of kin and bank details for every crew member. Certificates warn before they expire, and each crew member can see their own record, certificates and payslips at any time.
Crew management for superyachts
Cello brings crew, rotations, work and rest, onboarding and payroll into one secure web app. Your whole crew stays up to date, on board or ashore.
The next generation of Cello, rebuilt from the ground up for today’s crew offices.
Everything the crew office runs, in one place
Each module shares the same crew record, so a leave request, a certificate or a pay rise is entered once and is right everywhere.
Scheduler and leave
Plan rotations, approve leave through your own process and keep leave balances accurate. Captains and pursers arrange travel and flights and confirm safe manning each day.
Work and rest
Crew log hours on desktop or phone and heads of department approve them each week. Compliance reports are ready on demand at port, and the dashboard flags any breach as it happens.
New starters
Candidates send their details and certificates through a secure form instead of email. Your team checks them, approves the starter and the crew record is created for you.
Payroll
Multi-currency payroll with an approval chain that catches mistakes before anyone is paid. Payslips go online, bank files are produced in your bank's format and social security is calculated for you.
Dashboard and reports
A live dashboard for every user, showing rotations, payroll and certificate expiry. IMO crew and guest lists, leave reports and certificate reports are one click away, in PDF or Excel.
Also included: guest lists and passports, crew expenses with receipt approval, Word templates and digital signatures for contracts.
Monitor and maintain the daily running of your yacht
One record of every crew member's leave means departments never double-book. Leave is tied to each contract and to your manning requirements, so you can see at a glance who is on board tomorrow.
- View rotation patterns for the yacht, a department or one crew member
- Leave requests follow an approval process you set up
- Scheduled leave counts towards work and rest automatically
