"Yeoman" es equivalente a 'Petty Officer' en Ingles (GB) que se traduce en español como "oficial que atiende trabajaos administrativos".

Jairo Payan
: Un Yeoman no es un oficial, es un suboficial. El contramaestre de un buque no es un oficial, y sus labores son más operativas que administrativas. Mi humilde opinión, un cordial saludo

suboficial administrativo/de administración
Mirando sus funciones creo que se adapta

Definición de Yeoman
Yeoman is the oldest rating in the United States Navy. Yeomen perform secretarial and clerical work. They deal with visitors, telephone calls and incoming mail. They organize files and operate copy machines and order and distribute supplies. They write and type business and social letters, notices, directives, forms and reports.

Si lo dicho ahí es bastante diicil encontrar un equivalente, podría pensarse en suboficial de administración, pero lo de la parte clerical no sabría como acomodarlo. Que tengas suerte

Armada Española: administración
An important issue here is that Yeoman is not a rank but a specialty: a yeoman is an enlisted rating (NCO) specialising in administrative and clerical work, whose rank can range from E4 Master-at-arms Third Class up to E9 Master Chief Petty Officer.

There is a clear equivalent in the Spanish Navy, where there are a series of "Especialidades", one of which is "Administración". This specialty exists within both the lowest tier, "Marinería y Tropa", and that of "Suboficiales". Of the former, the Navy's website says:
"Especialistas en el tratamiento de la documentación. Su trabajo se desarrolla en todas las unidades de la Armada, tanto en tierra como a bordo de los buques.
[...]
Formación:
Marinero: 4 meses
Cabo: 6 meses
Cabo 1º: 1 año
Expectativa en la vida civil:
* Ofimática.
* Administrativo.
* Secretariado.

In the same category under "Suboficiales", it says:
"Campo de Actividad
Los miembros de la Escala de Suboficiales del Cuerpo de Especialistas de la Armada pertenecientes a la especialidad fundamental de Administración desarrollan actividades de gestión administrativa, incluida la contable y de todo tipo de recursos.
Pueden acceder a la especialidad de Administración todos los MTM procedentes de la especialidad de Administración."

This is obviously the Spanish Navy's equivalente of the US Yeoman. Since a Yeoman is an NCO, the Spanish equivalent is precisely Suboficial de Administración, as Jairo says.
