TO APPLY
Please email winewise@winewiseevents.com with your cover letter and resume with “Seasonal Wine Sail Assistant” in the subject line. It’s important to send both a resume (which tells us what experience you have) and your cover letter (to tell us what desire you have and why you think you are the best person for this very awesome job). We are only able to respond to applicants who submit both and that we feel might be a match for our needs.
We are hiring for multiple positions at Wine Wise and for project work at Portland Wine Week. If you think you are qualified for more than one open position and would like to have a larger role with us, we encourage you to do so by stating this clearly in one email and your cover letter and including “applying for multiple positions” in the subject line. For example, one person could become the Portland Wine Week 15-Video/Reels Creator, and more responsibilities on the marketing team, and become the Friday and Saturday Wine Sail Assistant (Seasonal) for Wine Wise.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Who wants to hang out with us on our highly-rated wine sails this summer? We’re hiring an assistant to Sommelier Erica Archer for our very frequent and very awesome wine sails in Portland, Maine. As the Wine Sail Assistant, you will assist with all wine sail activities before, during, and after sailing aboard the beautiful sailboat Frances, built by her Captain and crew in Portland, Maine, and docked on the Maine State Pier. You’ll enjoy views of Maine’s lighthouses, waterways, and islands all while caring for customers, and learning a lot about wine. This is a dream job for the right person. We are set on exceeding customer expectations by providing the best quality, customer service, and experience possible.
The schedule is Fridays and Saturdays June 7 – October 13 with 1-3 wine sails each day. Please see the working hours below. We’re looking for someone who can think independently, be punctual, carry cases of wine (32-50 lbs), be great with customer service, and be able to work on a large moving boat. We need someone that is 100% reliable.
We’re not concerned with you knowing wine. We’d rather you be great at customer service and hospitality. We’d rather you be reliable, on time, and solid! And be a glass-half-full person than a glass-half-empty person. No experience is necessary. We’ll train the right person. It’s very easy and very fun!
If you think you are the right person, we’d love for you to apply. Please email your resume and cover letter to winewise@winewiseevents.com. If you could put Wine Sail Assistant Application in the subject line, that would be great, too! It’s important to send both a resume (which tells us what experience you have) and your cover letter (to tell us what desire you have and why you think you are the best person for this very awesome job). We are only able to respond to applicants who submit both.
We look forward to hearing from you.
