Job description

Main Location: Bolton Leisure (Sir Jason Kenny, Horwich, Farnworth and Westhoughton)

Job Type: Casual

Working Hours: As and when required between Monday to Sunday

Salary: £16.37 per hour

Here at Bolton Community Leisure Trust, our goal is to encourage active, healthy lifestyles in an environment that is safe, warm, clean, friendly, and fun. To be the destination of choice for being part of an active community, whilst helping you to make MORE of every day. To deliver those services takes an enthusiastic and customer-focused team - and right now we are looking to recruit for Casual Swimming Teachers to join us.

By following the tried and tested Swim England learn to swim framework, we develop the confidence in all our swimmers through fun and enjoyable lessons. Many of our swimmers have progressed to swim competitively and even to represent our country.

Teaching our swimming lessons will see you delivering safe, fun, and progressive lessons, but this is also a mentality we take towards our teachers' careers and personal development.

What you’ll need to do the role:

You will have excellent customer service skills and be someone who is happy to deal with people of all ages and backgrounds.

You will need to hold either a STA Award/Certificate in Teaching Swimming or Swim England (Previously ASA) Level 2.

Holding either a valid RLSS UK NPLQ, RLSS UK NRASTC, or STA Safety Award for Teachers would be advantageous but not essential as we can provide the training to complete these courses free of charge.

A place you can make an impact: Swimming not only makes people healthier and happier; it also teaches a skill for life. As one of our teachers, you’ll be at the forefront of helping people develop those skills.

A place you can count on: Our swimming teachers are integral to the running of our centres, so as well progressing into aquatics coordination, they can move into other centre management roles in one of our 55 facilities.

A place for you: Teaching can lead to a great sense of accomplishment as you watch people progress and work with your local community. And as you’re supporting your students, we’ll be supporting you with ongoing training and development.
