Job – Captain & skipper & guide

Responsibilities:

• Commandeer our open boat like a true sea captain, navigating through the winding canals with ease and grace (and maybe a little bit of swagger).
• Enchant our passengers with fascinating stories and anecdotes about Amsterdam, all while maintaining a smile and a level of enthusiasm that makes them feel like they’re on a boat cruise with their new best friend.
• Ensure the comfort and satisfaction of passengers, responding to any questions they may have.

Job Requirements:

• Live in the region of Amsterdam and have a valid BSN number and/or work visa if from outside of European Union
• A passion for Amsterdam and all of its quirks and charms, and the ability to share that passion with others in a way that’s both informative, relaxed and fun.
• A good sense of humor and the ability to roll with the punches (and the waves, and the occasional tourist who insists on taking selfies during the entire tour).
• The ability to work flexible hours, including weekends and holidays
• Language skill: English and preferably also Dutch. 

The following requirements are preferred or you are willing to get these on short notice:

• VHF licence (marifoon basis certificaat) or RYA Marine Radio Short Range Certificate (SRC)
• The certificate for Social Hygiene (SVH)
• Experience operating boats, preferably in Amsterdam or similar waterways.

Benefits:

• Competitive salary and bonus opportunities
• Paid training, so you’ll be fully ready to entertain our guests.
• A fun and dynamic work environment, with a team of passionate and dedicated individuals.
