Cygnet Bay Pearls is a family owned boutique pearl farm who hire candidates interested in long term commitment and progressing in the pearl farming industry.
Working in the pearling industry is a physically demanding but ultimately rewarding job. One of only four commercial pearl farms still operating in Australia, Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm, in addition, has an onsite hatchery.
Located 200km north of Broome WA, potential candidates will need to be prepared to live in a remote environment as part of a small community.
You need to be very hands on and a team player that can handle an energetic work environment.
Accommodation is land-based with pearling crew working on the farm during each day.
If interested in any positions that may arise, send your CV to the manager via email to gary@cygnetbay.com.au
