Summer Midweek Beach House Manager Position

summer jobSeven Seas is seeking a person for a live/work position on Fire Island at our beach house.

Duration: Mondays-Fridays from May 25th – September 23rd.
Time Required: Approx 20 hours per week
Duties: General housework and cleaning, ordering and inventory, management tasks.
Compensation: $1,000 / month, plus room and board

Description:

The job consists of looking after two beach houses in the lovely town of Kismet on Fire Island between the weekends when the shares fill the place. A general week would look like this: show up on Sunday night or Monday morning. Do the laundry and cleaning on Monday morning. On Tuesday take stock of what is in the refrigerators and pantries and compare the shopping list, place online orders for grocery deliveries. Hang out at the house during the week and keep the place generally tidy. On Thursday morning, pick up the grocery and booze order from the dock and stock the refrigerators and pantries. Leave any time on Friday and return the following week to repeat.

This is a great gig for someone recently laid off looking for some time on the beach to figure on the next step, or someone with a significant other on the mainland where you can stay on weekends and save money by subletting your apartment for the summer.

Applicants must be responsible, reliable, detail oriented, pleasant and fit enough to perform basic physical work and cleaning tasks such as carrying groceries, light gardening, basic household repair, mopping, sweeping, cleaning, etc.

During the weeks, we will have our share members and others that come in and out each week, so it is important that the applicant fit the general tenor of the group that we cater to, mid 20s to mid 30s in age, pleasant, interesting, social, etc. Please visit http://kismetsevenseas.com first and read thoroughly BEFORE applying to understand the type of business we operate and environment we foster. Applicants who clearly have not taken the time to read this in advance will be rejected out of hand.

Kismet Seven Seas, Fire Island's Best Share house - Mix and Mingle Thursday 4/30The mercury has been giving us a little taste of summer all week so far and we couldn’t more excited for the season to start.  Seven Seas still has limited availability for weekend shares and we will be having a meet up this Thursday at 7:30 at the old standby, Peculier Pub, to meet with new prospects and mingle with our current shares.

If you haven’t gotten your summer plans squared away, now is the time.  Spend you summer on the beach with us in Kismet, away from Wall Street, swine flu and MTA fares!

This is our last meet up in April, and after May 1st — we will take payment in full only for shares (no more deposits), so this week is the chance for all you hand-to-mouth rockstars to get your slice!

See you Thursday!

WHEN: Thursday, April 9th @ 7:30 PM

Meet Up in Brooklyn by Popular Demand!

You didn’t think we’d leave you out, did you?

Of course not! We love Brooklyn. One of our founders even lives right there in Williamsburg and it is a great place to be. Maybe you’ve seen our flyers. Maybe you have been thinking about doing a sharehouse this year but all the uptown meet ups were a turn off. No more excuses! Come and join us Thursday night for some drinks right in your back yard! We’ll (hopefully) score the couches in back and chill out, talk about our summer plans and what the house is like with both current members and new prospects over economically priced drinks in a relaxed atmosphere.

If you’ve never done a sharehouse before or don’t really know what one is, this is a great opportunity to come sniff around. They’re not just for the Manhattan set and this is not like the Hamptons, Jersey Shore, or even Ocean Beach. We’d really like to get a sense of how many people are coming so please RSVP and let us know how much space to stake out.

WHEN: THURSDAY (4/2) – 8:00 – 10:30PM

WHERE: The Gibson (108 Bedford Ave @ N. 11th – map

RSVP: E-mail – benandcat@kismetsevenseas.com. Please include your contact info!

See you on Thursday.
