Are you looking to progress your career in the marine industry? Do you enjoy variety, responsibility, and supporting the smooth day‑to‑day running of a marina? If so, I’d love to tell you about this fantastic opportunity.

I’m currently recruiting for a Senior Marina Operative to join a friendly and professional team based at Brighton Marina. This role offers a dynamic working environment where no two days are the same. If you already have experience in the marine sector—or you’re keen to grow your skills with full support and training—this position could be ideal.

This is a hands‑on, customer‑facing senior role, involving a wide range of operational duties across the marina. The position works on a rota that includes some weekends and bank holidays.

What We’re Looking For I’d like to hear from candidates who are:

  • Experienced and knowledgeable within the marine leisure industry
  • Strong communicators, confident and professional with a wide range of customers
  • Comfortable using computer systems, including EPOS and basic financial processing
  • Positive, enthusiastic, and able to take direction while also stepping up to lead the team as needed
  • Happy working both indoors and outdoors, sometimes in challenging weather conditions
  • Reliable, adaptable, and willing to learn new skills
  • Calm under pressure and able to lead by example, earning the trust of colleagues
  • Flexible to work weekends and bank holidays as part of the rota
Most importantly, I’m looking for someone who’s eager to grow and develop in a supportive team environment.

What’s on Offer You’ll benefit from:

  • Competitive pay
  • 25 days’ annual leave
  • Private medical cover
  • Access to an online GP service, 7 days a week
  • Free onsite parking
  • Uniform provided
  • Access to ongoing training and development opportunities

Salary is dependant on experience and knowledge. If you're excited about this role but don’t meet every single requirement, you’re still encouraged to apply—you may be exactly who we’re looking for.
