WARNING – Beware of job scams.
Always verify the employer independently. Never send money to secure a job, and do not share sensitive documents before checking who you are dealing with. Training programmes may charge course fees: ask for a written breakdown and confirm whether the opportunity is paid employment, training or a work exchange.

Explore diving jobs and internships

Search by keyword and location, then filter by full-time, part-time, freelance or internship. Check each listing for its requirements, start date and application instructions.

Find the right diving opportunity

  • Dive instructor jobs: compare the required teaching qualifications, languages, experience and day-to-day responsibilities.
  • Divemaster and dive guide roles: look for a clear description of guiding duties, guest support, boat work and the experience expected.
  • Divemaster internships: check entry requirements, the training schedule, supervision, total costs and what is included.
  • Dive centre, resort and liveaboard work: search for relevant operations, sales, equipment or hospitality positions as they become available.

Make your diving application stand out

  1. Show your relevant experience. Include your certification level and agency, teaching or guiding experience, languages and useful practical skills.
  2. Be specific about availability. State your possible start date, preferred locations and the length of contract you are looking for.
  3. Tailor each application. Explain why you are a good fit for that operator and follow the instructions in the listing.
  4. Discuss the complete offer. Ask about pay, commission, working hours, days off, accommodation, equipment and insurance arrangements. Confirm work-permit requirements with the relevant official authorities.

Create your candidate profile to present your experience. Review the profile visibility settings and avoid including sensitive identity or financial documents in a public CV.

Hiring divers? Write a clearer job listing

Help suitable candidates decide whether to apply. Use a specific job title and include:

  • The start date, contract duration and working schedule.
  • The pay range, currency, commission structure and any benefits.

For internships, explain whether the placement is paid, unpaid, fee-based training or a work exchange, and itemise any course or certification fees. Keep listings accurate and close positions once they are filled.

You can browse the listings on this page without registering. Open an offer and follow its application instructions. To create a candidate profile, use the candidate registration page.

Do I need to be a qualified instructor to apply?

It depends on the position. Read the qualifications specified by the employer. Instructor roles, divemaster positions and training internships have different requirements; do not assume an internship accepts complete beginners.

Is a divemaster internship a paid job?
