Marine Society and Sea Cadets (MSSC) is a leading maritime charity in lifelong learning and personal development and is the governing charity of the Sea Cadet Corps (SCC), a civilian voluntary youth organisation engaging some 15,000 young people over 400 Sea Cadet Units, throughout the UK. The SCC offers a wide range of youth opportunities with the same enduring objective – to give young people the best possible head start in life through nautical adventure and fun.
We are currently seeking dynamic and motivated Night Supervisors to provide overnight supervision to cadets aged 12-18 attending residential training courses at multiple facilities, working in conjunction with other supervisors.
You will be experienced at working with young people including positive ways to address challenging behaviour, and you will have experience of delivering fun and safe activities for young people outside of formal training periods. You will demonstrate maturity and professionalism, and be adaptable and flexible in your approach to work.

MSSC brings together two charities: Sea Cadets and the Marine Society. Sea Cadets runs nautical adventure programs for about 14,000 young people ages 10–18 across the UK, organized through local units, training centers, boat stations, and a large group of volunteers. The Marine Society offers education and learning support for seafarers worldwide, using mentoring and distance-learning resources so people can study and gain qualifications while working at sea. What sets MSSC apart is its UK-wide, dual-charity model that combines youth development with lifelong maritime education, backed by thousands of volunteers and a fleet of vessels. Its goal is to help young people start strong in life by building confidence and skills, while helping seafarers advance professionally through certificates and qualifications.
