One Senior / Chief  Instructor and two Sailing Instructor positions now available (Starting in June 2016) within a progressive and fast-growing water-sports company based in Zhejiang province, China. 
Description:
Role 1 – Senior / Chief Instructor:
Salary 10,000 RMB/ month with accommodation (single room in shared staff house) , food, VISA and return flights and basic staff uniform also paid for
An opportunity for an experienced Senior Sailing Instructor to help develop a new water-sports centre from the ground up.  The client is looking for someone to help set up and run a new base in Dongtou, an Island just outside Wenzhou city. The client has a fleet of new RS dinghies (Quba, Tera, Cat 16) and is planning to add some RS Visions and possibly RS Ventures in the near future. The client will also be purchasing a couple of locally-built 29ft trimarans and possibly a Beneteau Oceanis 45 to run corporate events. 
Sailing is completely new to the Wenzhou area, so the focus this year(2016) will be on 'Try Sailing'™ and corporate events, with hopefully some beginner courses.  
The contract package includes accommodation (single room in a shared staff house) and food, plus return flights and visa. The term of the contract will be for a minimum of 6 months, starting no later than June 10th 2016. One week of holiday entitlement is included in the 6 month contract.
It is desirable (but not essential) for applicants to hold a Keelboat endorsement on their existing Senior Instructor Qualification and/or hold some form of Yachting certification (e.g. Day Skipper). A staff uniform and Personal Flotation Device (Lifejacket) will be provided. This role is a seasonal position, but an opportunity exists to continue working in China over winter at the Hangzhou lakeside base.
Roles 2+3 – Dinghy Sailing Instructors:
5,000 RMB/month, with accommodation (single room in shared staff house), food, VISA and return flights and basic staff uniform also paid for
1.        Based in Dongtou, a seaside and tidal location, the aim of the Dinghy Instructor is to support the Chief Instructor in building a new sailing center.  The focus for 2016 is on ˜Try Sailing'™ and corporate events, with some beginner courses expected to be delivered. This is a completely new sailing center, with good wind and a fleet of all-new boats including 2 x 29ft trimarans and a Beneteau Oceanis 45 expected to arrive soon.
2.         Based on a small lake just 20 minutes from Hangzhou city center, the focus of programs delivered at this centre is on 'summer camp' style activity and members' sailing activities.  This base has more of a 'club' feel, offering training and events for its members, as well as summer camps and corporate events.  A multi-activity instructor would be preferred for this position, with this being a light wind location, also offering kayaking, Stand-up Paddleboarding (SUP) and other water-sports activities.
The contract package includes accommodation (single room in a shared staff house) and food, plus return flights and visa.  The term of the contract will be for a minimum of 6 months, starting preferably mid-June 2016. One week of holiday entitlement is included in each of these 6 month contracts.

A staff uniform and Personal Flotation Device (Lifejacket) will be provided. The Dongtou base Instructor role is a seasonal position, but there is also an opportunity to continue working in China over winter at our Hangzhou lakeside base.
Translators will be provided for all activities and applicants are not expected to be able to speak Chinese.
