Offer description

You've come to the right place if you have a passion for sailing and travel, and love helping people plan their holidays.

We're a Cornwall-based adventure sailing company, and we're on the hunt for a new team member to help our wonderful customers book their sailing holidays. This isn't just a desk job—it's about being the friendly voice on the other end of the phone, making sure every detail is dealt with perfectly so our customers can set sail on the right adventure for them.

You'll be confident with spreadsheets, accounts software, and web systems, and have great attention to detail. If you're someone who gets a thrill from being organised and making sure everything runs smoothly, this is the role for you. We also spend a lot of time communicating via email, so excellent typing, spelling, and grammar skills are essential, as well as that all-important time on the phone.

Do you have experience in sales or customer service? A genuine love for sailing? If so, we'd love to hear from you. If this sounds like your kind of adventure, please get in touch. And yes, you will get to go sailing

This is a part-time, hybrid role where you'll work 23-25 hours a week. Our office hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM, and Saturday from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM. Your weekly schedule will typically be Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, with a morning Saturday shift twice a month to give you a longer break during the week. This can be flexible, depending on the applicant. There is room to grow into a full-time position for the right person.

What We're Looking For

To be a great fit for this role, you'll need:

* Strong written and verbal communication skills
* Experience with website systems (preferably WordPress or something similar).
* Some experience in office administration and IT processing.
* Previous experience in a customer service or sales role.
* Understanding of sailing or the marine sector.
* Business growth-focused.

What's In It for You?

We believe in supporting our team, and we're proud to offer some great perks:

* Flexible Working:
After completing your initial training, you'll have the option for flexible remote working days.
* Time Off:
We offer a generous annual leave allowance, sick pay, and special "Life Happens Days" for when you need them. You can also celebrate your birthday guilt-free with a paid day off if it falls on a workday
* Professional Growth:
We're committed to your development. We offer complete training and support for role enhancement through external training and courses.
* Free Sailing Trips:
As a team member, you'll get to enjoy free sailing trips.
* Salary
* £23-25k pro rata.

A Few More Things...

While we provide comprehensive training, we're a small, fast-growing company. We're looking for someone who can jump in and contribute quickly with strong IT skills and a positive, can-do attitude. If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you Please send your CV and cover letter to us
