About the role
Marina Dock Attendant / Dock Hand - Ocean Havens Marinas Looking for a fun, hands-on opportunity on Boston Harbor? Charlestown Marina is hiring part-time dock hands for the rest of the season (now through October). Our customers are the driving force behind everything we do, so the right person is cheerful, knowledgeable, and courteous at all times, providing top-notch service while projecting a professional image both on-site and off. Safety is just as important as service in this role.
Schedule:
We operate 8AM-6PM, Monday through Sunday. Shifts are generally 8 hours, either 8AM-4PM or 10AM-6PM. Weekend and holiday availability is required, and this is a very busy short summer season, so the ability to continue part-time (including weekends) into the Fall is a must.
Responsibilities:
Provide first-class customer service in every interaction. Perform daily opening and closing duties, dock walks, meter readings, and pump-outs, following equipment sanitation procedures. Maintain grounds, docks, walkways, restrooms, and equipment. Assist with special events, which may fall outside normal operating hours. Learn marina rates and policies, and bring a proactive, honest, and professional work ethic to the team. Perform other duties as assigned, always with an eye toward the safety of yourself, customers, and marina property.
Position Requirements:
Ability to lift up to 50 pounds. Ability to operate a VHF radio, hand tools, and power tools. Able to read, write, and use basic computer programs. Able to swim. Strong customer service instincts and attention to detail. Knowledge of boating, Boston, and the surrounding area is a plus, but not required - full training is provided, and all are encouraged to apply.
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.
