What We’re Looking For

• Strong knowledge of the marine industry (marinas, harbours, boatyards, marine services)
• Proven B2B sales experience (SaaS or technology preferred)
• Confident communicator with strong presentation skills
• Comfortable owning the full sales cycle
• Self-motivated, commercial, and target-driven

Why Join Harbour Assist & ClearCourse
