Boat Hire Crew - Casual, Sydney Harbour (training provided)
Boatique Sydney Boat Hire runs self-drive boat hire from The Spit in Mosman. Most of our customers have never driven a boat. Sending them out safely and getting them back smiling is the whole job.
We're hiring casual crew to start as soon as possible. Full training is provided on the boats you'll be running.
What the job really involves
Getting out to the boats on their moorings by paddleboard or dinghy (about 50 m a sheltered bay)
Daylight hours only, mostly 8:30am to 7:30pm in summer.
Days are rostered around bookings
Busy all summer: weekends are our busiest days, and during the season weekdays are busy.
This is an outdoors job
Key responsibilities
Prepare boats each shift: fuel, safety checks, cleaning, paperwork
Meet customers at the wharf, run the safety briefing, teach first-timers the basics at the helm
Bring boats between the moorings and the wharf, and help returning customers dock
Keep an eye on boats on the water through our GPS app
End of day: refuel, moor, log, report any issues
About you
NSW recreational boat licence (or willing to get one - it takes a day, and we'll help)
Comfortable handling small powerboats
Calm and clear with nervous first-timers
Reliable on weekends from now through March
Right to work in Australia
Nice to have
Sailing instructing, marina or boating experience
