Vacant job

The 2024 season is finally approaching, and it’s time for us to complement our hosting team for the summer.

As a host at Maritiman, you will be our face to the public and meet our guests in daily operations. You will staff our cash register, perform minor maintenance on the facility, conduct children's parties, lead guided tours, and assist our guests with questions or information about our facility. This year's season begins on April 5, followed by a spring where we are open on Saturdays and Sundays as well as during the Easter break, and then we can enjoy three long summer months when we are open every day of the week. After summer, we have an autumn where we are open on Saturdays and Sundays and during the autumn break until November 2, when we close for winter. Weekend work is therefore required, as well as evenings when we have evening events on board.

For these positions, we are looking for someone who is comfortable speaking in front of groups in Swedish and English, who can work with both adults and children, and who can easily absorb and convey large amounts of information. It is an advantage if you have previous work or educational experience as a guide or at sea, as well as if you have cash register experience or speak another language. Experience in cafés is also advantageous, as with such skills you may have the opportunity to help out in our café when the need arises. However, the most important thing is your personal qualities: we are looking for someone who wants to share curiosity and knowledge with others and who understands what good hosting means. As a person, you are outgoing, positive, and flexible. When we at Maritiman conduct program activities, we set high standards for ourselves and are driven by the desire to make everyone who comes to us as curious and enthusiastic about what we talk about as we are.

We can offer an attractive workplace in a unique environment, where you will be welcomed into a fantastic team of experienced and competent hosts. Together with our public manager and our lead host, this team forms a backbone that, in close collaboration with other staff, ensures that we can provide a facility and program activities of the highest quality from day one.
