 About the role 

As a Crew Scheduler, you’ll play a key role in ensuring the right people join the right ships, with the right documentation, from the right ports. 
You’ll be a vital part of the wider HR team and the main point of contact for crew during both their onboarding and repatriation process.

Alongside the coordination work, you’ll manage a variety of administrative and operational tasks. 
This includes maintaining accurate crew rotations, updating salary details, preparing monthly manning reports, and ensuring compliance with internal processes and timelines. 
You’ll also provide occasional cover (1 in 8 shifts on a 4-day rotation) for our 24/7 emergency travel support line, helping resolve urgent crew travel issues when needed. 

The role is based in Avonmouth on a hybrid basis, with two days a week in the office (Tuesday and Wednesday).

• Ideally, you’ll have experience in a scheduling or coordination role within an HR or operational environment. 
• You’ll be a confident communicator with a calm, positive attitude under pressure. 
• Your organisational skills and attention to detail will help you keep multiple tasks on track and deliver on time. 
• You’ll have good working knowledge of MS Office, particularly Word and Excel. 
• Experience using an ATS, scheduling or HRI system would be advantageous. 
• You’ll be proactive in identifying and improving processes, ensuring best practice at all times.
