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 transparent 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

- First aid certificate

- Live near Mosman or the lower north shore

- Handy with tools: mechanical, maintenance, painting or general handyman experience.

Why this beats a café job

You're on Sydney Harbour every shift, 33–36/hr + super depending on experience, with full training and a small, friendly crew.
