An avid sailor since youth, Nicolas Fry initially worked in marketing for the start of his professional life. He had a fortuitous nudge into yachting, however, when his father bought a 25m Tréhard sailing yacht from 1991 called DJANGO TOO and asked him to help market and manage charters on board.

Nicolas consequently spent several years moving around different sectors of the industry, working as a charter broker, yacht manager, crew manager and charter manager, as well as a stint as a crewmember. This combined experience created the perfect blend of knowledge for Nicolas to be a successful charter manager, supporting owners and crew and understanding all their needs and challenges.

Having worked in charter management since 2013, Nicolas has been responsible for building the charter reputation of some of the world’s most iconic yachts, as well as garnering extensive experience managing large charter fleets and leading teams of charter managers.

Joining Hill Robinson in September 2023, Nicolas is committed to continue growing the company’s strong fleet and promoting charter experiences for clients to enjoy the richness of the seven seas.
