ABOUT US

The Royal National Lifeboat Institution is a charity that provides, on call, a 24-hour lifeboat search and rescue service and a seasonal lifeguard service. Our lifeboat crews and lifeguards need a dedicated, professional, and talented team behind them.
The All-weather Lifeboat Centre is the RNLI’s in-house, boatbuilding, repair and refit facility located in Poole.
We have a full schedule of Lifeboat Refits and Shannon Build ahead of us and are seeking experienced Boatbuilders to join our teams.

As a Technician Boatbuilder you will be responsible for the installation, modification and repair/maintenance of marine structures and equipment for lifeboats in refit or new build. The work will involve a variety of boatbuilding disciplines, including epoxy composite repair, vessel strip down and assembly, deck fitout and assembly of components. It would be beneficial to your role if you possess skills in epoxy laminating - a multi-skilled attitude and approach is desirable.
The ALC offers a clean, organised and safe work environment, with all tools, materials and PPE provided to enable you to undertake this work.
