Cruise Liner Ship Jobs

Please note 1: Most "hospitality" jobs on International luxury cruise liners and passenger ships or ferries - i.e. those where you come in direct contact with the passengers ( "Front desk" [ information or purser's office ], bartenders, waiters, waitresses, and hostesses ) - normally require a minimum of two years work experience from an international five star hotel / resort / restaurant. Because a luxury cruise liner ship is a floating hotel.

The "pure" hospitality crew is the biggest part of the Cruise Liner ship crew. Also included in the catering department on a cruise liner you have all the jobs involved with food preparation and cleaning of interior areas. Outdoor areas are normally cleaned and kept "ship shape" by the deck crew. Waiters doing the food and drinks service are included in the hospitality crew.

Please note 2: Jobs Available are changing all the time. I recommend you come back every one to two weeks and check what is available. Go to the job listings on each individual website below and check for new opportunities. Positions listed indicate the kind of jobs one usually finds on each website. It's very easy if you add this page to your "Favourites" (IE) or "Bookmarks" (Firefox). I'm not a recruiting agent.

Please note 3: When the crewing agent have an on-line application form, you must use it - if you don't, your application goes straight into the waste basket.

Please note 4: None of the listed recruiting agents on this page asks for any placement fee - neither in advance nor later.

Please note 5: Every link on this page opens in a new window. If your "Pop-up killer" is too efficient it can also stop new windows. When this happens, please press "Ctrl" and click on the link you want.

Because a luxury cruise ship is a floating luxury five star hotel the employment opportunities are much wider than on any other kind of ship. There can easily - on a big cruise liner - be over 1.500 people taking care of the guests ( i.e. passengers ). The biggest cruise liner ship so far, "Oasis of the Seas", built for Royal Caribbean, accommodates 5.400 guests in comfort, served by a 3.300 person crew. The ship was received by Royal Caribbean from the shipyard at Turku in Finland late October 2009.

Oasis of the Seas came with a price tag of 1,5 billion USD ( US $ ) ( 1500 million $ ). From the bottom ( keel ) to the top ( the funnels ) it's 20 stories high ! There is a normal size golf course and live palm trees, etc onboard the cruise ship. You can follow adventures onboard the ship on it's own website: Oasis of the Seas.

Between 2011 and 2016 there will be 10 new cruise ships for Carnival entering the market with over 20.000 additional passenger capacity. Oasis of the Seas is getting it's sister ship Allure of the Seas - Royal Caribbean. One of the recently ordered ones is Carnival Breeze (see picture to the right).

Aida Cruises ( Germany ) gets AIDABlue cruising off West Europe and MSC Cruises the over 3.000 passenger MSC Magnifica. P & O and Celebrity Cruises gets one new one each, total close to 6.000 passengers together. Cunard's Queen Elizabeth with over 2.000 passengers will sail out of Southampton ( UK ).

Common Hospitality and Catering Positions

This list is not even complete, only the most common hospitality positions on a luxury cruise ship are mentioned:
"Hotel", Food & Beverage, Restaurant, and Bar Managers - Waiters, Maitre D', Sommelier, Chefs (different kinds), Baker, Barman, Cabin Stewards, Stewardesses, Hostesses, Purser, Receptionist, Cruise Director, Shop Assistant, Hairdresser, Beauty Therapist, Fitness Instructor, Photographer, Medical Doctors & Nurses ( male & female ), Entertainers, etc.

The new big cruise ships that are under construction during 2009 and later will have big crews. Below is a list of galley personnel on the cruise liner ship Seabourn Odyssey, a total of 57 people:

1 Chef de Cuisine - Colonnade
3 Executive Sous Chef
1 Executive Pastry Chef
1 Patio Chef
13 Chef de Partie ( station or line cooks )
2 Chef de Partie - Crew
1 Baker
1 Asst. Baker
1 Butcher
1 Asst. Butcher
11 Demi Chef de Partie
3 Demi Chef de Partie - Pastry
1 Utility #1
14 Utility Staff
1 Garbage Manager
2 Utility Garbage Staff

The Seabourn Odyssey is the first new Ultra-Luxury vessel in six years and was launched in June 2009 in Italy. The vessel accommodates 450 guests in 225 luxury suites in high luxury and very personalized service.

Every one of these different cruise liner jobs is not mentioned in connection with every recruiting agent or cruise liner operator below. Each listing includes only a few examples of the kinds of jobs usually found on each agent's / employer's vacancy list. Go to each website and check for current opportunities ( vacancies ). I'm not a recruitment agent.

On the majority of cruise liners most hospitality employees are given only a very low basic salary - the real income is from the tips the guests leave after ending the cruise. Some examples of basic salaries:

Stewards / stewardesses UK £ 1.500 - 2.500 per month depending on onboard experience ( one £ about 1.5 USD, December 2008 ).
Cooks and Night Bakers UK £ 2000 - 3.000 per month depending on onboard or hotel experience ( one £ about 1.5 USD December 2008 ).

Also the catering personnel must have STCW-95 documentation / certification, including seamen's medical certificate. In many countries there are short STCW courses adapted especially to Cruise Ships. Usually the recruiting agent / employer can advice on these, depending on your country of residence.

STCW95 amendments were agreed on at the IMO conference in Manila 2010. Therefore the new amended version is called STCW 2010. The new STCW requirements ( amendments ) will begin to apply from January 01, 2012, when they enter into force.

Seafarers holding STCW95 certificates - issued before January 01, 2012 - will have to meet the new requirements for their certificates to be revalidated / renewed past year 2017. By January 01, 2012 all seafarers must have STCW 2010 certificates.

From July 01, 2013 all new entrants / newcomers will have to be trained according to new standards ( STCW 2010 ). Up to January 01, 2017, seafarers that commenced training before 1st July 2013 may be issued with certificates in accordance with STCW-95

.

The Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 ( MLC ),was expected to come into force in 2011 or early 2012 but it seems to be delayed until April 2012. The Convention has a comprehensive definition of a seafarer that expands the types of workers on ships that are covered, which poses a challenge for the cruise ship sector that employ a large number of seafarers in connection with passenger related services such as hotel and catering services. This will most probably make the 4 mandatory STCW95 certificates and a seaman's book mandatory for everybody working onboard.

In this connection one must remember USCG final rule on accepted ID for crewmembers on foreign ( non-US ) flagged vessels calling on a US port. A Seaman's Book is not accepted as an ID

, only passport or a SID ( Seamen's ID ) issued in accordance with ILO Convention no. 185. The new ID is a biometric card with the person's fingerprints in a chip. The ruling came into force on May 28,2009.

The rules for the seamen's medical fitness examination can be found in "Seafarer Medical Examination System"

[ MSN 1765 (M)]. In Britain this certificate is commonly among seafarers often called "ENG1", because that's the official name of the form on which the certificate is issued. The "Medical Examination" document includes a list of countries who's medical certificates are accepted by MCA.

Visitors, temporary workers ( for instance repair crew ), short-time entertainers ( on cruise ships ), etc. are excluded, because they do not take part neither in the navigation nor have any safety-critical roles onboard. Neither are these people included in the "Muster List" nor do they take part in the ship's emergency drills, except as spectators.

Employment Opportunities

Newspapers and TV are talking about "economic crisis" and "economic depression / downturn" - I would call it a restructuring. There are new big cruise ships on order and there will be a continuous delivery of big cruise ships until year 2012. True, the shipyards have "problems" and new orders are not placed right now because it takes only two years from start to finish of such a ship.

We should, however be aware, that all the time / every day writing, reading, hearing about the Economic Crisis can create a self-fulfilling prognosis. As long as nobody comes forward with stories about those companies that still are running full speed with no problems the situation of course looks gloomy. But all companies all over the world do not have economical problems. In May 2009 Carnival Cruises did a recruitment drive in Manila, Philippines !

I quote an e-mail received: "every piece of paper helps. there are so many people out there looking for jobs. even the experienced guys will not get a look in if they are requiring a specific ticket and don't have ticket. the ticket will get you on the job... it's all an insurance thing."

When an old cruise ship is taken out of service the cruise ship is replaced by a bigger ship requiring bigger crew. It's unavoidable that total number of crew / personnel onboard the cruise ships will rise, at least for the next few years.
