Fancy something a bit different?
Big Duck Tours has now taken ownership of the incredibly popular Windsor Duck Tour and we are looking for experienced Boatmasters to grow the team as we grow the product.
You'll be taking charge of our unique amphibious "Duck", operating on the River Thames before returning to land to continue the tour. We currently operate a diesel Duck, with a brand-new electric Duck joining the fleet soon.
If you're also qualified to drive, we have dual role opportunities available at £19 per hour, giving you the chance to both drive on the road and captain the vessel on the river.
What you'll be doing
- Safely operating our Duck on the River Thames.
- Looking after passengers and crew while on the water.
- Carrying out daily safety and vessel checks.
- Working closely with your Driver or fellow Captain to keep tours running smoothly.
- Helping create a fun, memorable experience for our guests (don't worry - our guides do the commentary!).
We're looking for someone who
- Holds the appropriate Boatmaster Licence for the River Thames.
- Has experience operating passenger vessels.
- Takes safety seriously.
- Enjoys working with people and being part of a team.
- Can stay calm under pressure and has a positive attitude.
Why join Big Duck Tours?
- Be part of an exciting attraction launching in Windsor.
- Work with a friendly team in a unique role that's different every day.
- Competitive hourly pay.
- Opportunity to work on one of the UK's first electric amphibious sightseeing vessels.
- Genuine career progression as Big Duck Tours grows, with future opportunities on our London operation and other parts of the Thames.
Whether you're an experienced passenger boat skipper looking for a change or you're qualified to both drive and captain, we'd love to hear from you.
Come and help us launch something completely different on the River Thames.
