Haringey is a fantastic place to live and work – the world in one borough.

A place brimming with creativity, personality, radicalism, and community.

It is a place where we stand up for each other.

A place that is proudly distinctive.

We’ll be celebrating all this and more as the “rebel borough” when we are the 2027 London Borough of Culture.

Our history champions change-makers and everyday rebels; revelling in our differences, battling discrimination, championing equality, and doing things our own way.

Haringey’s people are a huge asset, with knowledge, expertise, and passion.

Our staff members embody our organisational values : Caring, Creative, Courageous, Collaborative and Community-focused.

These values keep us looking forward, ambitious for the future, and continuously striving to do our very best for all of our residents.

Haringey has now brought its leisure centres back in-house and is reshaping the service around a broader wellbeing offer.

This is a pivotal moment to help shape a newly insourced leisure service, embed its delivery, and lead its ongoing development.

In this role, you will be responsible for two flagship sites with swimming pools — including the iconic Park Road Lido - plus a sports centre and a smaller community gym.

As the Leisure Centres Area Manager, you will play a crucial role in service delivery, acting as the main point of contact for all General Managers and wider staff teams.

Haringey Council is engaging with its communities to ensure it develops inclusive, accessible services that meet the diverse needs of our residents and, as the Leisure Centres Area Manager, you will be leading this delivery.

You will join the Leisure Management Team, reporting to the Head of Active Wellbeing.

Now that the insourcing is complete, you will be responsible for up to 100 staff across four sites.

This is a great opportunity to lead and develop your operational team to ensure the newly integrated service continues to meet the needs of our residents through excellent customer care and well-managed facilities.

We are seeking a dynamic and experienced leisure professional to join our Leisure Management team.

You must have a proven track record in the leisure industry and be able to lead and motivate a large operational workforce across multiple sites.

You will inspire a culture of excellent customer services and create centres that are inclusive and welcoming.

You must be able to work with and influence a wide range of people and partners to get things done and ensure compliance with health and safety.

You need to be ready for what could be the most challenging and transforming role of your career!

At Haringey Council we are committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included, and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits of a diverse workforce so welcome applications from all ethnicities and communities so that we continue to make a difference to our residents and community. Our benefits package includes a leave entitlement of 31 days + bank holidays, potential hybrid working opportunities, health and wellbeing support, a generous local government pension scheme and a range of discount schemes across leisure and culture that provide both financial and money-saving discounts.
