Company Info

It is part of Carnival Corporation & plc, a global cruise company with several major cruise brands and a large fleet serving millions of guests each year.

Its operations combine hospitality, maritime transportation, technology, security, logistics, and tourism.

Employees typically work with multinational teams and support complex digital systems that serve guests, crew members, ships, ports, and shoreside operations.

Destination Guide

A cruise-based role is different from employment on one fixed island. Opportunities may be available aboard ships or at shoreside offices in Miami, with destinations including Caribbean islands, The Bahamas, Mexico, and other international ports. Cruise culture is multicultural, fast-paced, service-focused, and highly collaborative. Shipboard employees often work long schedules, share crew facilities, and spend extended periods away from home, while shoreside technology roles generally follow office or hybrid arrangements. A valid passport, medical clearance, background screening, and company-approved maritime or employment documentation may be required. Visa needs depend on nationality, itinerary, and whether the employee joins a ship in the United States or another country; the employer normally provides guidance, but applicants must meet immigration rules. Relocation to Miami may involve U.S. work authorization, housing costs, and adapting to a diverse coastal city with warm weather and strong cruise-industry employment.
