Waterways Ireland has several temporary or seasonal jobs on offer. In NI, it wants a Temporary Seasonal Waterway Patroller for Lock 1 (Corraquill) on the SEW, closing date 28 May 2012, and a Temporary Seasonal Assistant Boat Person (Part Time) for the Erne, closing date also 28 May 2012.
Southron folk, though, get an extra two days to apply for jobs: a Temporary Seasonal Assistant Boat Person (Part Time) in Athlone, and Temporary Seasonal Assistant Lock Keepers for all Shannon locks north of Lough Derg.
