Marina Manager Opportunity –Isle of Wight 

We’re working with a well-established marina that’s looking for a confident, capable, and people-focused Marina Manager (CMM preferred) to take the lead of their day-to-day operations. If you’re hands-on, great with people, and bring experience from the marine or hospitality world, this could be your next move.

You’ll be the steady pair of hands keeping everything running smoothly — from customer service and compliance to finances, HR, and general operations across the site and other residential sites owned by the Marina. 

What You’ll Be Doing

• Keeping daily operations running safely and smoothly, maintaining high H&S and company standards.
• Managing the financial side — reconciliations, budgets, payroll, and reporting.
• Looking after the team: rota planning, training, and performance support.
• Overseeing berthing and supporting lock operations for vessels moving in and out.
• Being the first point of contact for customer queries and making sure visitors feel welcome.
• Taking responsibility for site security and coordinating maintenance as needed.
• Getting involved with marketing and promoting the marina’s services.
• Preparing clear reports for senior management.

What We’re Looking For

• Management experience in a marina, leisure, hospitality, or similar environment.
• Strong financial skills — budgets, reconciliations, payroll, reporting.
• Confident handling HR tasks: staffing, scheduling, compliance, and team support.
• Excellent communication and leadership abilities.
• Comfortable with Microsoft Office and HR/finance systems.
• Self-motivated, organised, and able to work independently.
• Positive attitude and great problem-solving instincts.
• A valid driving licence.
