Helmsman/Helmswoman (m/f/d)

Job Description

On board our passenger vessels you ensure that everything runs smoothly. Preparing the ship before and after each trip, casting off and mooring, operating the engines, steering the vessel, and – of course – making sure the safety of crew and passengers is guaranteed at all times is in your blood. Together with the crew you keep the ship in top condition visually and technically, and you pitch in for maintenance and repair work.

You support the ship captain in all areas and also help out in the on-board gastronomy or sell and check tickets. Our passengers enjoy their time on the ship, and your friendly and reliable manner is a perfect fit. You feel at home on every vessel, whether an elegant passenger ship, a party boat, or a ferry.

The shipping company can count on you as a reliable team player who brings all their experience – or is eager to gain it with us. Your workplace is where others spend their leisure time. That is why working evenings or weekends does not bother you. A nine-to-five job is not for you; you are customer- and service-oriented and speak good German.

Does that describe you? Then a quick fact-check below and we look forward to your application.
