The Sushi Chef de Partie prepares high-quality sushi, sashimi, rolls, sauces, garnishes, and related dishes according to Seabourn’s recipes and presentation standards. Requirements typically include professional culinary training or equivalent experience, previous sushi or Japanese-cuisine experience, strong knife skills, food-safety and sanitation knowledge, and the ability to work efficiently in a busy galley. The successful candidate is expected to maintain consistent quality, control portions and food waste, follow HACCP procedures, keep the workstation clean, and support the Chef de Cuisine and wider culinary team. Cruise experience is advantageous. Candidates should be adaptable, physically fit, detail-oriented, guest-focused, and comfortable working long shifts at sea within a multicultural team.
Seabourn is a luxury cruise brand operated within Holland America Group and part of Carnival Corporation. It is known for intimate, yacht-like ships, destination-focused itineraries, refined service, and highly personalized guest experiences. Seabourn cruises visit regions such as the Caribbean, Mediterranean, Northern Europe, Alaska, Asia, and remote expedition destinations. Its onboard teams work in an upscale environment where attention to detail, discretion, teamwork, and consistent service are essential. Culinary operations are a major part of the guest experience, with restaurants and menus designed around premium ingredients, creative presentation, and destination-inspired cuisine. Crew members generally receive accommodation, meals, onboard training, and the opportunity to work with an international team while visiting multiple countries. Employment is contract-based and involves living and working at sea, following company safety procedures, and maintaining professional standards throughout the voyage.
The Caribbean includes diverse islands such as Barbados, Jamaica, Saint Lucia, Antigua, Grenada, and the Bahamas, each with its own culture, cuisine, music, and pace of life. Tourism, hospitality, marine services, restaurants, healthcare, construction, and retail provide many job opportunities, although cruise employment may be based onboard rather than on a specific island. Life is generally warm and outdoor-oriented, with beaches, water sports, festivals, local markets, and strong community traditions. English is widely used in many islands; French, Spanish, and Dutch are also common depending on location. Visa and work-permit rules vary by island and nationality. Cruise crew normally need company-arranged travel documents, a valid passport, medical clearance, and sometimes a seafarer or transit visa. Anyone relocating ashore should confirm employment authorization, housing costs, tax rules, healthcare access, and transportation before moving.
