We’re gearing up for a busy and exciting summer — and we need vibrant, customer-focused team members to help us shine!

We’re on the lookout for friendly, energetic people to join our Half Moon Bay Customer Care team for the summer season — from early October through to the end of February 2026.

Majestic scenery. Extraordinary wildlife. And an escape unlike any other. It’s all in a typical day’s work for us here at SeaLink – connecting people and businesses to the majestic Hauraki Gulf, so they can explore, transport stuff, commute, and share our love for the islands.

At SeaLink, we believe in connection and teamwork. People come and stay at SeaLink – because of “one boat, one team” we might have all arrived on different ships, but we are all on the same boat together, working towards a common goal.

When you join the SeaLink team, you can ensure your work life blend remains stable through routine, and with the flexibility and opportunity to provide a balanced lifestyle – for you and your own family.
