The role of Dishwasher at Manthey Hospitality is essential to maintaining the cleanliness and efficiency of the galley, which supports high-energy culinary operations onboard vessels such as Yacht StarShip.

Working within fast-paced and energetic kitchens, galley crew prepares meals for cruises that run weekdays, weekends, and special holiday events.

Candidates must be comfortable working aboard vessels in tight, dynamic environments and able to work extended shifts, including evenings, weekends, holidays, and cruises that last from 2 to 5 hours, with occasional longer shifts. Strong communication and teamwork skills are essential for success in this role. Manthey Hospitality offers competitive pay and benefits such as health, dental, and vision insurance for full-time employees, a 401(k) with company match, subsidized parking, complimentary cruises, and exclusive discounts on Manthey Hospitality brands.

Joining Manthey Hospitality means becoming part of a supportive and exciting team dedicated to delivering exceptional service and unforgettable experiences on the water. Dishwashers are critical members of this team, ensuring the galley operates smoothly and hygienically, allowing the culinary crew to focus on crafting outstanding meals. This role is ideal for individuals who thrive in energetic environments and are eager to contribute to high standards of cleanliness, safety, and teamwork aboard one of Tampa Bay's most admired passenger vessels.
