The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company are hosting a Careers Open Day this November.  

The Open Day, which is taking place on Thursday 24th November between 11am and 3pm at Imperial Buildings, the head offices of the Steam Packet Company, looks to attract individuals and students keen to kick-start or progress a career at sea.  

The Steam Packet Company, which has operated on the Irish Sea since 1830, is specifically looking to employ customer services crew members ahead of its 2023 season.  

Brian Thomson, Managing Director of the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company, said: ‘With a proud heritage in both passenger and freight sea transport, the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company has long understood that its people are key to the success of the business. A truly dynamic company, we provide an essential service to the Island and take great pride in recruiting, training, supporting, and developing our people. 

‘The imminent arrival of our new vessel, Manxman, and upgrades to our existing fleet make this a great time to join the company, with opportunities across various departments, including engineering, back office, general crew, and customer service. We’ve got a long history of recruiting locally, and there are staff working here today who had parents and grandparents who also worked for the Company.  

I’d highly encourage those looking to take their first step into an exciting and rewarding career at sea, to register for our Careers Open Day this November.’
