Think you've got what it takes to work on the water with a crew that gets things done and has a laugh while doing it?
We're on the lookout for experienced, hands-on deckhands who aren't afraid to get stuck in.

If you're keen for a solid gig with a good bunch of people - this is it.

Why You'll Love Working With Us

  • Full-time, secure gig - no mucking around, we look after our own.
  • 7/7 Roster - one week on, one week off. Work hard, then live your best life.
  • Career progression - if you're hungry, we'll back you.

The Job

We've got a spot opening up on one of our top-notch vessels.
If you're switched on, selfmotivated, and thrive in a busy, hard-working crew - you'll fit right in.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Installing & removing nets, mooring systems, and anchors
  • Feed runs to our sites across Southeast Tas
  • Loading & unloading gear - generators, compressors, supplies
  • Lease upkeep & general maintenance
  • Operating capstans, winches, cranes - all the fun toys

Who We're After

Someone who's:

  • Done the deckhand thing before (commercial fishing experience = big tick)
  • Physically fit and ready for hands-on graft
  • Big on safety - we look after each other out there
  • A team player with a solid attitude
  • Reliable - licence + transport needed
  • Cleared to work full-time in Australia
  • Master V & MED 3 are a bonus (Coxswains NC2 minimum)

If you love the ocean, like working with your hands, and don't mind getting a bit grubby - you'll fit right in.

Perks of the Job

  • Work with a cracking team
  • Only 20 mins south of Hobart
  • Stunning Tassie scenery every day
  • Cheap private health
