Working at Sound Experience

Seasonal crew positions aboard Adventuress are not your typical 9-5 job. They are educational, challenging, fun, out in the elements; they require a level of situational awareness, and are very rewarding. If that sparks your interest , we look forward to hearing from you! No two days are alike, however you can get a sense of what a "typical" day might be like by reading "A day in the life of an Adventuress Crew Member" below the job descriptions. It was written by our 2018 Chief Mate SamSam.
