How to Apply 

Important Update

Carnival Australia, which operates P&O Cruises Australia, is aware that some people have received emails claiming to offer employment positions with P&O Cruises Australia.

These job offers are false and completely at odds with P&O Cruises'
employment practices and have been reported to relevant authorities in Australia.

P&O Cruises Australia does not send unsolicited emails offering job
opportunities. Career opportunities at Carnival Australia are shown on our Careers Centre website.

Should you receive an unsolicited email claiming to offer job opportunities at Carnival Australia or P&O Cruises Australia, you should not respond. Such approaches should be reported to relevant authorities in your country of origin.

Take Care

Please address your application correctly, as incorrect applications will not be redirected. If your application does not relate to a specific advertised vacancy, it will be considered to be an "unsolicited application". Due to the sheer volume of unsolicited applications, receipt of these will not be acknowledged nor contact made with you unless there is a need to discuss a relevant vacancy.

Keeping you on File

If there is no specific vacancy, your application will be destroyed immediately or kept on file for a period of up to 12 months in case a suitable position arises.

We assume that by providing your application, you consent to this retaining period. If you do not consent, you must advise us when sending your application.

We treat every application in a secure manner. If there is a need to discuss a crew vacancy with you, you will be contacted to arrange an interview.
