We are looking for two presentable, friendly and organised Membership Services Administrators to join us in a busy and rapidly evolving Yacht Club.
The candidates will ideally have a passion for the yachting industry but this isn't essential; experience, enthusiasm, and energy are more important to us.
About Us
The Royal Lymington Yacht Club is a prestigious Club with a rich history. We are honoured to have Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal as our Patron and offer a relaxed family atmosphere, welcoming anyone with an interest in boating.
Based in a beautiful location, we host an extensive programme of activities, and our Clubhouse is open nearly every day of the year.
