We’re looking for a skilled, guest-focused skipper to lead 4 & 6 day live-aboard tours on the Ningaloo Reef aboard Shore Thing — our 51ft luxury catamaran based in Coral Bay, Western Australia.

You’ll be responsible for safe navigation, crew leadership, guest experience, and vessel maintenance — all while sharing the reef’s magic through snorkel and dive adventures. With a trip-on/trip-off roster (possible for DIDO from Exmouth), you’ll have a lifestyle that allows time to enjoy Ningaloo yourself.

You bring

- Master V qualification skippering experience on sailing vessels
- Coxswain or MED III & attention to detail for AMSA, operational & maintenance requirements
- Advanced First Aid & CPR
- Previous scuba diving and tourism experience
- Strong leadership, service skills, and a can-do attitude
- A deep respect for the marine setting

We offer





- Excellent wages and full operational support and guidance from owner operators
- A fun, tight-knit crew and guests who love the experience as much as you do
- Work in one of the world’s most unique reef environments — no two days the same
- Furnished accommodation available to rent in Coral Bay

How to Apply
