Sail Central Coast and Broken Bay Yacht Charter are looking for a capable, energetic and dependable person to join our growing charter operation. Based primarily at Hardys Bay, we operate private and corporate sailing charters aboard two Seawind 1160 catamarans across Brisbane Water, Broken Bay, Pittwater and the surrounding waterways.
This is a diverse, hands-on role combining vessel preparation and maintenance with deckhand and charter work. It is not simply a deckhand position. We are looking for someone who can learn the vessels and operation thoroughly, take ownership of practical responsibilities and become a trusted part of the business.
For the right person, there is genuine scope to progress into regular skippering and, over time, potentially take on a senior local role coordinating vessel readiness, maintenance and day-to-day charter operations. Any progression would depend on experience, performance and the needs of the business.
