Quality Control Specialist
Charleston Marine LLC
Pay: $16.00–$18.00 per hour
Job Type: Full-Time
Schedule: Monday–Friday | Day Shift | No Nights | No Weekends
Protecting Our Reputation, One Boat at a Time
At Charleston Marine, we believe exceptional customer service begins with quality. Every boat that enters and leaves our facility represents our reputation, and every customer deserves to receive their boat clean, complete, and ready for the water.
We are looking for a Quality Control Specialist who takes pride in doing things the right way. This position is responsible for inspecting every boat at check-in and before delivery, preparing boats for customer pickup, and ensuring nothing leaves our facility without meeting Charleston Marine's standards.
This is much more than washing boats. You are the final quality checkpoint before a customer gets their boat back.
Responsibilities
- Perform quality control inspections using a written checklist when boats arrive for service and before they are returned to the customer.
- Wash and prepare boats for customer pickup.
- Verify completed work and identify anything that needs attention before delivery.
- Document and communicate any concerns to the Service Manager.
- Safely move boats throughout the property using shop equipment.
- Assist with maintaining a clean, organized showroom and facility.
Qualifications
We're looking for someone who:
- Has excellent attention to detail.
- Works well independently without constant supervision.
- Takes pride in producing quality work.
- Is dependable, punctual, and self-motivated.
- Enjoys working both indoors and outdoors.
- Has a positive attitude and enjoys being part of a team.
Requirements
- Valid driver's license with a clean driving record.
- Must already know how to safely back and maneuver boat trailers. We are willing to train the right candidate in every other aspect of the job, but trailer backing is an essential skill that applicants must already possess.
- Comfortable operating shop equipment to move boats.
- Able to lift up to 50 pounds and work in varying weather conditions.
- Previous boating experience is beneficial.
- Mechanical aptitude is a plus.
Why Charleston Marine?
Charleston Marine is built on one simple philosophy:
We solve problems.
We believe our customers deserve exceptional service, honest communication, and attention to detail. Every employee plays a role in delivering that experience, and the Quality Control Specialist is one of the most important positions in our company. You are the last person to inspect every boat before it goes back to its owner, and your work directly impacts our reputation.
If you take pride in doing things right, enjoy working around boats, and want to be part of a team that values quality over shortcuts, we'd like to meet you.
