My name is Amanda and I’ve worked in the Marine Industry for over 19 years!
Accumulatively, I have over 10 years of experience working onboard cruise ships with a variety of cruise companies including; Princess Cruises, P&O Australia, Cunard & Royal Caribbean International.
In addition, I also have over 9 years of shore-side marine recruitment experience, where I have been responsible for assisting with the hiring of thousands of onboard personnel for a variety of major cruise lines.
I have operated Get a Life at Sea for over 4+ years and now have dozens of clients securing interviews with major cruise lines and joining their first ships within weeks of working with me. I can honestly say that I’ve got the Cruise Ship Specialist formula for success!

I have trained thousands of crew members onboard numerous ships for Princess Cruises, P&O Australia and Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines. During my final years at sea, I was promoted to ‘People & Performance Manager’ (or Human Resources Manager) with P&O Australia. I have continued to work within the marine industry as a shore-side cruise ship recruitment specialist in Canada for 6+ years after my departure from onboard employment. In 2015 I started Get a Life at Sea which provides expert advice, products and services for cruise ship employment seekers!
I look forward to providing you with TONS of FREE resources and insight into life onboard, and more importantly, how on earth to start the process of landing your job with a cruise line.
I know that my background in shore-side recruitment and years of onboard experience will provide you with the tools you need to get started with your own life at sea!
