The role suits an SSI-certified Freediving and/or Mermaid Instructor with strong water skills, sound safety awareness and experience teaching or guiding guests. Candidates should be confident leading training sessions, introductory experiences and daily trips for international customers. The Trip Manager responsibilities are likely to include scheduling, guest briefings, logistics, equipment coordination and communication with boat crews or local partners. Fluency in English, professional customer service, flexibility and the ability to work independently in a seasonal resort environment are expected. Additional instructor ratings, first-aid or rescue training, boat experience and knowledge of Thailand’s dive sites would be advantageous.
Global Dive Jobs is an international recruitment and advertising platform focused on employment opportunities in scuba diving, freediving, marine tourism and related watersports. Its listings connect qualified instructors, guides, boat crew and dive professionals with operators in destinations around the world. The advertised Thailand position appears to be a seasonal opportunity promoted through the platform rather than a conventional corporate office role. The specific hiring dive centre, resort or liveaboard should be confirmed directly before accepting an offer. Applicants should verify the employment contract, salary structure, accommodation, insurance, visa support, working schedule and certification requirements. Global Dive Jobs is useful for discovering specialist dive-industry vacancies, although candidates should conduct normal checks on the end employer and avoid paying recruitment fees without clear, verifiable justification.
Thailand offers varied island work, including freediving and scuba instruction, snorkelling tours, boat operations, resort guest services, retail and hospitality. Popular locations include Koh Tao for training, Koh Samui and Phuket for established tourism, and Koh Phi Phi or Koh Lanta for island excursions and seasonal resort work. Life is generally warm, social and outdoors-focused, with affordable local food, beaches and a relaxed culture, although peak seasons can be busy and accommodation prices rise. Respect for Buddhist customs, local communities and marine environments is important. Foreign workers normally need an appropriate visa and a Thai work permit; working on a tourist visa is not legal. Employers may arrange documentation, but candidates should confirm this in writing. Bring certification records, passport copies, medical and insurance documents, and allow time for housing and banking arrangements. Thailand’s main tourism season varies by coast, so check local weather before relocating.
