Job description

About the Role

Our lifeguards are on hand to ensure our guests are having a great time as well as keeping safe in the pool and on the flumes in our Splash Waterworld! Our guests' safety is our biggest priority, so this role requires superb attention to detail whilst also interacting with our guests and providing exceptional customer service. You will promote and run poolside activities, creating memorable experiences for our guests.

If you have a previous lifeguard qualification, that's brilliant, but we will also put you through your NPLQ course, giving you all the training you need to start your career in lifeguarding. This permanent role covers a variety of shifts between 8.30am - 9pm, with Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursdays as essential, and more hours available in the school holidays. Our business is open 7 days a week and therefore flexibility, reliability, and punctuality are all essential, as you will form an important part of a team.

About You

We are looking for enthusiastic individuals who have a natural ability to engage and relate with a wide range of people. You will need to be a strong swimmer with fantastic attention to detail to ensure you can monitor the pool at busy times. If you have a previous lifeguard qualification, we would love to hear from you. However, we are also happy to support you with gaining your NPLQ fully-funded with us too.

You will work alongside a great team, but there will be times where you are supervising areas independently.
