Looking for something a little different?

Whether you’re local to Shetland or thinking about a change of scene, this could be just what you’re looking for.

And the setting? Absolutely unbeatable.

What’s it like working here?

Our Chef Manager Steven sums it up perfectly:

“Working in Shetland is incredibly rewarding. Yes, being away for a few weeks can be a challenge, but the time off afterwards makes it all worthwhile.
The scenery is amazing, especially in summer when it barely gets dark, and there’s plenty to do, walking, cycling, or simply unwinding.

On site, we’ve got a fully equipped gym, great food, and a social space to relax with colleagues. You can even work your full rotation without spending a penny if you want to.

Safety is a huge priority here, and everyone is supported to make sure we go home safe every time.”
