A JOB THAT IS GOING PLACES

It is your career—if you have always dreamed of combining your love for travel with the ability to move up in your career, then Viking is a great fit. We have always been about discovery for both our guests and our crew; we believe that the destinations and moments of cultural enrichment are the reasons why people travel. As part of our crew, you can disembark if you are free when the ship docks, so you will have the ability to spend time ashore, refresh and explore.

WORK WITH VIKING

WHO IS VIKING

More than 20 ago, Viking® started in Russia with four river ships. Through the years, we have set the standard for what river cruising should be, and today we are the leader that all others follow. In 2015, we took the same small ship, destination-focused experience to the seas and redefined ocean cruising. And after just one year of service, Viking Ocean Cruises® became the world’s best ocean cruise line. We are a financially stable, dynamically growing company—the largest, most award-winning in the industry—with a fleet of more than 60 river ships and six ocean vessels cruising over 100 itineraries around the world.
