V


oyonic, one of the largest management companies which operates in the International Marine Employment and Services sector is based in Guernsey in the Channel Islands. Located in the Bay of St Malo the Islands are British Crown Dependencies and are Independently Governed and have associate member status within the EU.


The Bailiwick of Guernsey consists of the islands of Guernsey, Alderney, Sark, Jethou, Brecqou and Lihou. Measuring just 24 square miles at high tide and with a tidal range of 10 metres Guernsey doubles in size at low tide. Guernsey has a very strong seafaring past from fishing for cod off Newfoundland to Privateering. Its geographical position and allegiance to the UK Crown has seen the Islands at conflict with near neighbours France on numerous occasions throughout history and the range and scope of fortifications built to repel Napoleon is of significant historic interest.


During the Second World War the Channel Islands were the only part of the UK to be occupied by the Third Reich. Hitler believed that the Channel Islands were of strategic importance and as such became the most heavily fortified sector of his Atlantic Wall, many of the concrete structures built still exist throughout the islands.


The Islands are incredibly picturesque with a fantastic selection of flora and fauna, a temperate climate, and a wide selection of great bays and beaches. These natural assets have helped to create a thriving tourist economy with visitors from both the UK and Europe. Guernsey is well connected to both the UK and Europe with links to many cities and ports.
