Work Pattern: Mixture of early, late, and weekend shifts to cover business operational hours.

Here at Oxford Leisure Trust, our goal is to get more people, more active, more often. We provide affordable access to a wide range of sports and leisure facilities to support healthier and happier people across all segments of the local community. To deliver those services, we need an enthusiastic and customer-focused team. We are currently recruiting Trainee Lifeguards to join our course, which begins on the //. Please note this course will run for 5 consecutive days, and you must be available to attend each day.

Once the course is complete and you pass successfully, your position as a Lifeguard will make you an important part of life here at the centre. You will ensure that everyone can use the pool safely and access everything they need to enjoy their visit.

Without you, there can’t be any pool activity. You won’t be working alone; our leisure centre has a close-knit and supportive team, all working towards providing an inclusive leisure hub for the entire community. You will also receive excellent training and development opportunities, along with benefits such as free leisure access and various discounts.

Serco manages these facilities on behalf of the Trust.

What you'll need to do the role

You’ll need excellent customer service skills, as you’ll be interacting heavily with our customers. Whether you’ve gained this experience in leisure or another customer-facing environment, you’ll be a people person who is comfortable dealing with people of all ages and backgrounds.

Your responsibilities include providing customer care to people of all ages, supervising activities, maintaining high standards of cleanliness in the pool area, and ensuring the safe handling and setup of pool equipment. When needed, you’ll also help to save lives.

As a lifeguard, you’ll need to be safety-conscious, vigilant, and capable of handling pressurized situations. Strong swimming skills are also essential.

Why Serco

Meaningful and vital work: Swimming pools are the heartbeat of our leisure centres, and without lifeguards, we can’t operate. You ensure our customers’ safety and help save lives when necessary.

A world of opportunity: Our lifeguards are key to running our centres. Progress into senior lifeguard roles or move into other centre management positions within our facilities.

Great people: Our centres are close-knit and friendly. We support each other and provide resources for career growth through Serco Learning.

What we offer

• Free membership at the Centre, plus heavily discounted classes and facilities.
• Free safeguarding training and DBS checks.
• Excellent development and training opportunities with our in-house Aquatic Training Academy.
• 6% employer-matched pension contribution.
• Days of annual leave (pro-rata for part-time) plus public holidays.
• Life assurance up to 2x base salary.
• For all leisure benefits, please see our website.

Serco/Serco Leisure Operating Limited manages the recruitment process and the Trust’s employees in delivering the service. The Trust is committed to equal opportunities. Applicants with additional needs or requiring extra time to submit applications should contact the Recruitment Team at 50. Employees will undergo a DBS check where appropriate.
