- Assist local concierge and commission partners with updated marketing content
- Work closely with crew to highlight authentic onboard experiences
- Collaborate with leadership on brand growth initiatives
What We're Looking For

- Comfortable appearing on camera and engaging with guests and crew
- Experience managing social media for a brand or organization
- Comfortable working onboard vessels in a marine environment
- Self-directed, organized, and proactive
What We Offer
