Vacant job

Do you have experience in serving and want to be part of our wonderful team on board?

We offer work in an exciting and international environment, where we work together at a fast pace and have fun along the way. Always with the guests in focus! We are now looking for serving staff for the summer season on board Silja Symphony, with the opportunity to start working extra already in the spring.

We are looking for both employees who want to work with a fixed summer schedule, where you work about 8–10 days on board followed by an equal length of paid leave, and employees who want to work more flexibly, as substitutes/extra as needed. As a substitute, you will instead make yourself available in our personnel system based on your preferences and availability to then be booked for shifts based on the needs of the business.

On board, there is a wide range of restaurants within à la carte and buffet. Job opportunities exist in both the à la carte restaurants and the buffet, depending on your previous experiences. As a waiter/waitress, your main task is to create an extraordinary guest experience. We would like you to have active customer contact as a natural part of your work and to keep updated about our products and concepts on board.

We are looking for you who:

• Have at least two years of professional experience as a waiter/waitress.
• Have good knowledge of food and beverages.
• Have a high sense of service.
• Relevant education in à la carte and bar service is an advantage.

To succeed in the role, it is important that you are positive, social, and goal-oriented. You are engaged in your work, have the desire to develop, and enjoy working in a fast-paced environment and in a team to achieve common goals.

For us, it is important that you value and want to work based on our guiding principles: joy, commitment, cooperation, and professionalism.

Whether you have worked at sea before or not, we offer a chance to grow and develop together with us. The first step in your journey will be a four-day onboarding to familiarize yourself with the work environment, the ship, and the team.

Once you are working on board, you will be part of the safety organization. Therefore, it is important that you have good physical fitness as well as good knowledge of Swedish, which is the safety language on board, and good knowledge of English. To work on board, you also need citizenship in an EU/EES country, a valid medical certificate for seafarers, and a passport. Background checks are conducted as part of the recruitment process, and alcohol and drug tests may occur according to our safety procedures to ensure a safe working environment on board.
