PLUS-
- Job security! Settoon Towing is committed to retaining its
employees, even in tough economic times. Settoon Towing has
made it a goal; “NO LAY-OFFS!”, and we strive to continue
this commitment.
- Extended time off. After each completed work schedule on
board the towboat, you have several days off at a stretch,
totaling as much as four months a year of time off.
- Flexibility to live where you want. Towboat crews often
live several hundred miles from the waterways on which they
work. This flexibility means you can live near your family
and friends and still be able to meet the boat when it's time
to head back to the job.
- The opportunity for a stable, well-paid career with unlimited
potential to move up in a dynamic industry that stresses a
safe, productive, and drug-free environment.
- The ability to save on your expenses! Meals, groceries and
board are a paid benefit while you are working.
The inland barge and towing industry is a 24-hour-a-day, 7-days-a-week
business. When on the job, the crew-members of a towboat work,
eat and sleep on board their vessel for several days or even
weeks at a time. The work can be hard and challenging, but it's
also rewarding.
If you're ambitious and hardworking, a job on board a towboat
offers outstanding opportunities for advancement in the maritime
industry.
As a newcomer to the industry, you will begin as a deckhand
where you can take advantage of our training programs. Settoon
