About the role

American Cruise Lines, the largest USA flagged cruise line operating in the United States, seeks an Excursions Director to lead shore excursions and transfers aboard our ships for the 2026 season. You will engage guests, coordinate with vendors, and serve as a brand ambassador with a focus on guest satisfaction during port calls. This on-board role demands energy, creativity, and a collaborative spirit, with long hours and a strong emphasis on safety, logistics, and guest experience.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
