Delivering a range of organised children’s entertainment activities including themed games, storytelling, arts and crafts, face painting, and interactive experiences as part of the onboard entertainment programme.
Supporting the Marketing and Social Media teams by participating in promotional activities, photoshoots, video content, live events, and customer engagement campaigns across the passenger network.

You take pride in delivering outstanding customer service and are passionate about creating those extra special “surprise and delight” moments for guests.
You will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build rapport quickly and adapt your approach to different audiences and situations. Creative, proactive, and a strong team player, you thrive in a fast-paced and varied environment and are happy to support colleagues wherever needed.
