Royal National Lifeboat Institution Careers

The Royal National Lifeboat Institution is the charity that saves lives at sea. Volunteers make up 95% of our workforce – ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Our people are selfless, dependable, trustworthy and courageous. These are our values and they underpin everything we do. Since our inception in 1824, demand for our lifesaving services has evolved significantly.

We provide a 24-hour search and rescue service from 238 lifeboat stations around the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland, including four along the River Thames and four inland lifeboat stations. In addition, we operate lifeguards on beaches around the UK and channel island and a specialist Flood Rescue Team ready to respond to severe flooding situations, both at home and around the world. Our sea and beach safety work is paramount and we are sharing our maritime expertise with like-minded international organisations to help save even more lives from drowning.
