Job description

Cruise & Excursions Director
American Cruise Lines, the largest USA flagged cruise line in the United States, is looking to add Cruise & Excursions Directors to our shipboard team for our 2026 season. American Cruise Lines only operates within the United States and has no more than 200 passenger vessels that create a one-of-a-kind small ship experience. With newly constructed vessels being added to our fleet, it is a great opportunity to join our shipboard management team.
The Cruise & Excursions Director is a hybrid role responsible for engaging guests both on board and ashore. On board, the Cruise & Excursions Director is the most visible advocate for guests and is responsible for creating a fun atmosphere while always engaging guests through a series of activities, shows, events, presentations, communications and socializing throughout the cruise. Ashore, the Cruise & Excursions Director engages guests in each destination through a series of shoreside excursions, explorations and adventures while managing all shore excursions and transfer operations, external vendor/operator communications, premium excursion upselling and inventory management.
This role has the highest level of guest interaction and can be very demanding, with long hours. The role requires an energetic and creative person with extraordinarily polished presentation skills, a collaborative team spirit and a passion for guest satisfaction. The Cruise & Excursions Director reports to the Hotel General Manager.
At American Cruise Lines, we are driven by our values-Optimism, Commitment, Patriotism, and Merit. These values shape our culture, our service, and our people, guiding us as we work together to Share America's Story on the Finest American Ships.
Responsibilities
  • Schedule and execute engaging entertainment, enrichment and activity programs that enhance and elevate the guest experience.
  • Create the Ship to Shore.
  • Effectively communicate to guests via the shipboard daily program, stage, public address system and one-on-one interaction and socialization.
  • Be extraordinarily well-versed in the cruising region, ports of call and excursions offered.
  • Confirm and adjust, as necessary, all shore excursions, explorations, adventures and transfers.
  • Greet guests as they depart for and return from shore excursions.
  • Accompany guests on daily excursions as a company representative and brand ambassador.
  • Coordinate, communicate and confirm all logistics with vendors, coach companies, guides, ground operators and entertainers to ensure timely and smooth service.
  • Accommodate guest requests, including highly personalized ones such as kayaking, golf tee times, and private transportation arrangements.
  • Socialize with guests at every opportunity including, but not limited to, mealtimes and cocktail hour.
  • Make daily midday announcement/update; make every effort to make all PA announcements as the "voice" of the cruise.
  • Present a detailed Officer's Introduction and Excursions Briefing to guests at the beginning of every cruise.
  • Assist in the delivery of the Safety Briefing with the Captain.
  • Ensure lounges are prepared for activities, events, presentations and shows (lounge configuration, stage set-up, background music, A/V requirements, etc.).
  • Meet and greet step-on entertainers when they join the ship; conduct sound check and inspect stage set-up.
  • Oversee excursion inventory and invoicing system; be fully responsible and accountable for system hardware.
  • Manage launch boat operations with the Mate.
  • Purchase morning newspapers in port each day.
  • Oversee, manage inventory and display port information collateral for guests; coordinate with local CVBs to obtain and refresh maps, brochures and other port-/region-specific materials of interest to guests.
  • Ensure that approved background music is playing in lounges before and after each activity, presentation and show.
  • Create and update bulletin board daily.
  • Coordinate weekly office inventory.
  • Prepare folders and materials for turnaround day.
  • Inform crew members of daily excursion offerings.
  • Monitor and evaluate performance of vendors, coach companies, guides, ground operators, motor coaches, entertainers and guest speakers, providing immediate course corrections when necessary.

  • Meet with Guest Speakers, Guest Instructors and Resident Entertainers at the start of every cruise to review scheduling.
