Summer Job at Destination Gotland

Do you want to have as much free time as you work while also getting the chance to work with a wonderful team and make friends for life? Then you will thrive with us!

Destination Gotland offers a varied and fast-paced job with the goal that everyone traveling to or from Gotland has a top-class experience.

In the onboard restaurant, we serve well-prepared food made from local ingredients, everything from fresh salads to hearty sandwiches or filling wraps.

The tasks can vary from preparing and cooking food to ensuring that the dining area and kitchen are in top condition.

At Destination Gotland, we believe in a work environment where every employee feels equally important. With us, you will gain experiences that you will benefit from for the rest of your life!

Working a Summer Job at Destination Gotland:

• As much free time as working time
• A workplace where all employees feel welcome
• Salary and insurance according to collective agreements
• Gain experiences that you will benefit from for the rest of your life

Working Hours:

The positions we are looking for are seasonal employments at 75%-95%. The work is arranged so that you work for a period and then have a period off in a rolling schedule throughout your seasonal employment. For you, this means exciting and fun working days onboard, while you will also be able to enjoy everything that summer has to offer during your days off on land!

During the summer, our ships operate around the clock, which means that working hours can be scheduled for day, evening, and night. Since it is a seasonal part-time employment, you will live at home and board and disembark the ship on all your working days. Your shifts always start and end in Visby, so you must be able to get to Visby harbor regardless of what time your working days start. As our schedules are based on the ships' timetables, we cannot adjust working hours to public transport.

Qualifications

Our expectations of you:

• You are a team player
• You enjoy learning new things
• You are positive and service-oriented
• You have the right attitude and want to have fun at work

To work with us, you need to be at least 18 years old. You do not need to have worked on a ship before, but previous experience in safety and service-oriented jobs is an advantage.

We would like you to have experience in cold kitchen work; it is advantageous if you have education in kitchen/restaurant.

You speak Swedish fluently and have good knowledge of English.

Safety:

Onboard, safety always has the highest priority. As a new employee with us, you will undergo mandatory safety training and a medical examination for maritime employees.

If you are called for safety training, you need to bring a copy of your criminal record. Before a hiring decision is made, we always conduct a background check as well as an alcohol and drug test.

Interviews and References:

We collaborate with LB Karriär, who is responsible for interviews and reference checks. Selection is ongoing, and we look forward to your application as soon as possible!

At Destination Gotland, we are responsible for one of Sweden's most important routes – the sea route between Gotland and the mainland. Our fast ferries create opportunities for both passengers and freight traffic to travel efficiently between Gotland and the mainland, on the routes Visby – Nynäshamn or Visby – Oskarshamn.

Starting in spring 2024, we will also operate cruise traffic between Stockholm, Mariehamn, and Visby with the vessel M/S Birka Gotland.

We have been operating the Gotland traffic since 1998 and are proud of the trust. Formally, the assignment is from the Transport Administration, but in many ways, the assignment is also from the Gotland community. We see it as our task to contribute to the development of Gotland by always leading the way and creating opportunities for everyone who wants to travel to and from our island.
