    Welcome to The Olsen Way.

    In recent years, we have seen a new era emerging in cruising.

    There is a trend for everything to get bigger and busier, and for a cruise to be seen as an alternative to a large luxury resort, with a limitless flurry of activity.

    But this is not for us.

    We believe there is another way to cruise. A way that is based on five generations of seafaring.

    Where cabins are called cabins and ships look like ships.

    Where the journey is as important as the destination.

    In our world, smaller is better, and we believe in keeping the experience on board uncrowded, warm and civilised - treating passengers as guests, like the family run business we are.

    It would be easy to follow the trends and go with the crowds.

    But we never will.

    Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is a family run company, well known for our quality cruises and the ‘personal’ touch we offer our guests.

    The Entertainment Host/Hostess works within a busy entertainments department, with responsibilities including:

    • Performing and assisting with guest entertainment activities;
    • Socialising with guests;
    • Arranging and hosting guest parties;
    • Table hosting;
    • Assisting embarkation and disembarkation.

    Applicant should possess the following skills and qualities:

    • Ambitious, hardworking and results driven work ethic, with a focus on excellent customer service;
    • Wide knowledge of popular music and recreational trends;
    • Fluent in English communication: both written and spoken;
    • Basic knowledge of sound and light set up;
    • Knowledge of tournament set up and scoring system;
    • Commercial awareness in a highly customer focused environment;
    • Engaging public speaking manner when presenting to large groups;
    • Competent use of all Microsoft Office functions;
    • STCW training - essential;
    • Cruise Ship experience - advantageous.

    In return, you will receive a competitive salary and a 4:1 work rotation of four months on board followed by one month of leave. This is an exciting opportunity to work on board our cruise ships, travelling to worldwide destinations whilst enhancing our guests' holiday experience. This is your chance to give our guests the experience of a lifetime!
