A visit to the official P&O Ferries jobs website[i] is the first step to take if you are considering a career with this ferry operator. A wide variety of jobs are available for prospective applicants, the careers available do not confine you to working on a ferry, in fact only a very small percentage of the P&O careers workforce are actually employed to work onboard one of their vessels. The majority of workers are assigned to the dock to assist with loading and unloading cargo and passengers with even more employees looking after the administrative side of P&O’s operations, based in P&O’s Head Office in Dover. If you do apply however, and are successful in your application for an onboard position then you can expect to be working either on the English Channel, the Irish Sea or the North Sea, experiencing a wide range of destinations on a daily basis.
As with all ferry companies, there are variety of both full and part time positions available at most points during the year due to the size of the organisation, one division of the company which appears to recruit throughout the year without fail is the marketing department, so if you have experience in this field and are looking for a new challenge, then do consider P and O Ferries jobs as a viable and attractive option.
A career with the P&O Ferries jobs offers employees a wealth of benefits, from flexible working hours to a whole range of discounts on travel with P an O Ferries which can on occasion be extended to include family members and friends, amongst many other extras not available to passengers. Employees are also eligible for discounts on P&O Cruises in addition to the ferry crossing discounts already mentioned, for those who don’t know, P&O Cruises are one of the major cruise ship operators, travelling to a wide variety of destinations worldwide including the Caribbean.
