Job Title: Night Marina Operative
Location: Portsmouth



I’m currently recruiting for a Night Marina Operative to join a friendly and committed team based at Trafalgar Wharf in Portsmouth. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working independently at night, takes pride in delivering excellent customer service, and values safety and security.

In this role, you’ll play a key part in ensuring the marina remains safe, secure, and well managed overnight. Your responsibilities will include patrolling the marina and dry stack areas, carrying out safety and security checks, monitoring CCTV, and controlling access to secure areas. Our customers rely on a calm, professional presence, particularly outside core hours, so reliability and attention to detail are essential.

What I’m looking for:

• Proven customer service or customer‑facing experience
• A positive, can‑do attitude with a flexible approach to teamwork
• The ability to work confidently both alone and as part of a team
• The ability to remain calm under pressure
• Confidence using, or learning to use, computer‑based systems

Previous experience in a similar role, or knowledge of boating and local cruising grounds, would be beneficial but isn’t essential. Full training will be provided where needed, and you’ll be supported to develop your skills and reach your potential. A full UK driving licence is advantageous but not essential.

Working pattern:
This role operates on a 4 on / 4 off rota, working 12‑hour night shifts, including some weekends and Bank/Public Holidays.

Salary & benefits:

• Salary: DOE (Dependent on Experience)
• Annual leave allowance equivalent to 25 days
• Private medical cover
• Free onsite parking
• Access to an Online GP service, available 7 days a week

Applications are welcome from all backgrounds. All applicants are treated equally and with respect, regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage or civil partnership, pregnancy or maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, or sexual orientation.

Proof of eligibility to work in the UK will be required.
