While the boat builder is responsible for building the original boats, it’s the Shipwright's Services's Services who maintains and repairs them once they leave the boatyard.

As a Shipwright's Services's Services, you will work with the latest technology to repair all types of vessels from small pleasure craft through to a range of competitive, commercial and naval vessels. You will work with a range of materials including metal, wood, aluminium, Fibreglass, plastic, and Composites.

You will often work as part of a team. The work is very physical and you will need to be agile and have good hand-eye coordination. As a Shipwright's Services's Services, you will work on the waterfront in shipyards, in the repair sections of ports or in small boat yards and marinas.

If you are not afraid of heights and love looking after boats then this is the job for you.
