Global Opportunities at Viking
Viking’s recruitment events provide direct access to recruiters who can answer questions about hospitality, culinary, technical, and guest services roles onboard. With the cruise line continuing to expand both its river and ocean fleets, Viking is seeking motivated professionals from around the globe.
For those eager to embark on a career at sea with one of the industry’s fastest-growing brands, these events offer the perfect gateway.
What truly sets Viking apart in the cruise industry isn’t just its elegant ships or itineraries, it’s the crew-first approach. Onboard, crew members thrive within a supportive and empowering community, where management is accessible and genuinely invested in their well-being and professional upgrades.
Thanks to their moderate size, Viking ships maintain a comfortable pace of work—a refreshing change from the hustle of larger vessels. Added to that, Viking crew enjoy extensive perks from comprehensive benefits, free high-speed Starlink internet, and round-trip airfare, to generous rest policies, secure contracts with guaranteed sign-on dates, and thoughtfully designed rest and recreational areas. These factors—not just the voyage, but the way Vikings sail their ships—make for a career at sea that’s as enriching for crew as it is for their guests.
