About Candidate
Hi
I am a newly qualified SSI Instructor having trained in Gozo in 2024/2025. I have dived many of the fabulous sites in and around Malta/Gozo as a team member guiding divers of all nationalities, German, US, Chinese, Italian, French, etc.
In all I have approximately 150 logged dives.
I would relish the opportunity to join a team that promotes safe and confident diving and one that has a good team spirit and camaraderie.
I have some additional skill that include suit testing, running repairs (changing dump valves repairing BCD’s, tank O rings etc). Also I am RYA Level 2 qualified (boat handling).
I consider myself as hardworking, a team player, I would normally have a 7am start, prepare customers dive kit (Wash down after each dive), fill tanks, load the truck and go diving !
I am someone who quickly bonds with customers and other dive centre team members.

Education
Work & Experience
I am a newly qualified SSI instructor with a number of additional skills which I feel will make me a valuable dive centre team member. I have learnt under multiple agencies (BSAC Dive leader and PADI OW advanced) but my primary skills were gained during my SSI Diver Master and OW Instructor training in Gozo in 2024 and 2025. I have 150+ logged dives (UK, Mexico, Gozo and Gran Canaria).
In Gozo, I would undertake running repairs to suits, tanks, BCD’s, test regulators and change dump valves or O rings. I would also meet and greet customers having prepared their dive kit. In addition, I would liaise and sell dive excursions and daily boat charters to customers.
I have completed a 6 month role at Northern Diver International (a UK diving equipment manufacturer). I trained to test and repair dry-suits, bespoke fit and advise customers in relation to suits, whilst upselling equipment and dive accessories. I also undertook some product testing and social media content creation.
