Genting Cruise Lines is about to go on a major recruitment drive ahead of relaunching cruise operations out of Singapore.

The company said intends to fill more than 100 jobs covering all aspects of cruiseship operations as part of its commitment to reviving seafaring opportunities in the city state.

The search for talent will encompass a broad local footprint ranging from ex-naval or maritime officers and crew to the hard-hit food and beverage sector and the hotel and hospitality industry.
