Proud of our reputation afforded to us by many centuries of dedication to the nation’s maritime infrastructure, we are a forward-thinking organisation and it is our ability to meet new challenges and the changing requirements of the modern mariner that keeps us relevant and effective.

This is a unique role within an equally unique organisation.  As part of a team, you’ll work on one of our vessels, responsible for ship board maintenance, service operations and assisting with maintaining working stores levels.  You can look forward to plenty of variety, so you must be keen to build your knowledge and skills and enhance the contribution this position makes to the deck department.  The ability to quickly get to grips with new technology is also important. Experience working on aft working Gas/Oil Supply type Vessels and or anchor handling Vessels would be an advantage however full training of our operations will be undertaken.

The role involves maintaining Navigation Aids including Lighthouses, Light Vessels and Buoys; bridge and harbour watch keeping also forms an important side of the job function.

You must hold a valid EDH Certificate plus a valid ENG 1.
