A cruise is about the joy of the journey, as well as the destinations you visit, and exploring the world from the wonderful vantage point of the ship and the sea.
We plan our cruises differently. Our team of Journey Planners change our itineraries every year - unlike some other cruise lines who always sail the same routes. We also put as much time into planning scenic cruising on every sailing as we do in choosing the destinations themselves. As a result, we have won Cruise Critic’s award for best itineraries 5 years in a row.
Our smaller-sized ships have been elegantly designed and they all look and feel like ships with wide open deck spaces as well as lounges and restaurants which have been meticulously planned to ensure you have a wonderful experience. The smaller size of our ships also allows us access to more interesting places, such as Norway’s lesser known Fjords. It also means we can dock in the heart of some of the world’s most fascinating cities.
With sailings from five departure ports around the UK, your next Fred. Olsen cruise is closer than you think.Working Hours :Monday - Friday 9am - 5pm with a 1-hour lunch break.Skills: Communication skills,Attention to detail,Organisation skills,Customer care skills....Read more...

Employer Description:Blooming Imaginations is operating a fantastic nursery called Mini Moos at Churchfields Farm, Worcester.
This 30 place Day Nursery for children age 2-5 years offers fantastic outdoor learning opportunities provided by qualified, dedicated and experienced staff, following the government Early Years Statutory Framework (EYFS), within our own self contained indoor and outdoor environment.
Blooming Imaginations was created by two sisters who have grown up together creating their own fun and adventures, using solely their imaginations. Now, with 5 children between them and two successful careers in education, they are delighted to be able to provide this opportunity for the next generation of children, to explore their creativity and immerse themselves in their own world of role play fun, using our detailed sets and extensive props to inspire their own narrative of play.
Bianca and Dominique also run their own successful childcare provision, where they spend every day facilitating learning through play. So they know how children love to make-believe and how beneficial it can be to their developmental progression. Children can learn from ANY activity and the team are skilled in providing endless opportunities, based on their interests and the life experiences that influence their play.
As parents and also having lived in Worcester all our lives, we are very aware of the lack of variety - but particularly of indoor play facilities - locally. This has inspired us to provide a service that is not only fun, but also a rich and meaningful play experience, that can be enjoyed by the local community. We have created a flexible, ‘pop-up’ setup that can be operated both indoors and outdoors, at various locations, publicly during a session or can be privately hiredWorking Hours :On a rota between Monday - Friday 7.30am - 6.00pmSkills: Communication skills,Attention to detail,Customer care skills,Problem solving skills,Team working,Initiative,Creative,Non judgemental,Patience,Physical fitness....Read more...
