Torbay Harbour Authority and Beaches are transitioning to a cashless service across all offices, quaysides, and beaches. This will cover, among other things, visitor charges, launch and recovery, electric, and short-term beach hut hires.
This change will apply from Monday 14th April. Our goal is to streamline operations, improve the safety of our staff and the service efficiency.
Join Torbay Council as a Harbour Assistant and play a vital role in maintaining our beautiful harbour estates.
This role will be primarily based at Torquay Harbour, but you may be required to cover Paignton or Brixham at times. The role requires occasional weekend working which is split between the Harbour Assistants on a rota basis. Weekend work benefits from enhanced pay.
Under the direction of the Harbour Master and their team, you'll assist with a variety of day-to-day operations and maintenance activities, ensuring our quays and infrastructure are well-maintained, clean, and safe.
You will provide a professional and efficient service to customers, visitors, and the public. Key duties include assisting with vessel arrivals and departures, collecting harbour charges, managing traffic and parking, maintaining communication, and enforcing Harbour Bye-laws.
If you're passionate about maritime activities and ready to contribute to the community, apply now to be part of our dedicated team!
