Full Time | Permanent

Are you a hands-on manager who enjoys variety, thrives in an operational environment, and takes pride in delivering excellent customer service?

We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established family run marina in St Neots for an experienced Marina Manager to oversee the day-to-day operation of a busy and welcoming waterside facility. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys balancing practical, hands-on work with leadership, administration, and customer engagement.

No two days are the same in this role. From coordinating boat movements and managing marina facilities to supporting boat sales and leading a small team, you'll play a pivotal role in ensuring the marina operates safely, efficiently, and to the highest standards.

The Role

As a General Manager, you'll take ownership of the marina's daily operations while acting as the main point of contact for berth holders, visitors, contractors, and suppliers. You'll combine operational oversight with a proactive, hands-on approach to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Your responsibilities will include:

Managing berth allocations, moorings, visitor bookings and occupancy records.
Coordinating boat arrivals, departures and marina services.
Ensuring the marina, buildings and facilities are clean, safe and well maintained.
Overseeing fuel, utilities, waste disposal and marina security systems.
Supporting the brokerage of boats, including preparing listings, photography and assisting with negotiations.
Managing customer accounts, contracts, invoicing and supplier payments.
Liaising with finance teams regarding payroll and VAT administration.
Coordinating contractors and maintenance works across the site.
Leading and supporting marina staff while maintaining effective communication with the wider leadership team.
Ensuring compliance with health & safety legislation and carrying out routine safety inspections.
We're looking for someone who is organised, approachable and confident managing a varied workload. You'll enjoy working with people, solving problems and being actively involved in the day-to-day running of the marina.

You'll ideally have:

Previous experience in an operations, facilities, property or marina management role.
Strong organisational and administrative skills.
Excellent customer service and communication abilities.
Good IT skills and experience maintaining accurate records.
A practical, hands-on approach with the ability to resolve operational issues.
Basic bookkeeping or financial administration experience.
The ability to work independently and prioritise effectively.
Experience within the marine or leisure industry would be highly advantageous, as would previous experience supervising staff or managing contractors.

Full-time, 37.5 hours per week.

Five days per week, Monday to Saturday (rota basis).

Flexibility to support occasional weekends, bank holidays or emergency call-outs when required.

Salary & Benefits

£35,000 - £40,000 per annum (dependent on experience).

Permanent, full-time opportunity.

Supportive working environment.

Varied and rewarding role in a unique waterside setting.
