Join Our Team as a Lifeguard at Splash Waterworld!

Welcome to Splash Waterworld, one of the most vibrant and exhilarating spots on our resort! Here, you’ll find thrilling flumes, high-speed slides, and a variety of swimming zones filled with guests enjoying their time. As a Lifeguard, you’ll be at the heart of the action!

Your role goes beyond just monitoring the pool; you’ll be ensuring that every guest has an unforgettable experience while keeping safety as your top priority. Whether you’re supervising the slides, watching over the wave pool, or leading poolside activities, you’ll be creating memorable moments and building genuine connections with our guests.

At Butlin’s, every day is unique! From welcoming families during school holidays to hosting guests at our adult-only Big Weekenders, you’ll be part of a dynamic team that keeps the fun flowing all year round.

The Details:

  • Full-time role
  • 35 hours per week, across 5 days out of 7
  • Includes evenings and weekends
  • Live-in accommodation available for those relocating

About You

We’re on the lookout for energetic, responsible individuals who thrive in social environments. If you stay calm under pressure, communicate effectively, and work well in a team, we want to hear from you!

To join our Lifeguard team, you’ll need to:

  • Be a strong and confident swimmer
  • Be aged 18 or over
  • Exhibit excellent awareness and attention to detail
  • Be confident in responding to emergency situations

No NPLQ? No problem! If you have the right attitude and strong swimming skills, we’ll support you in obtaining your National Pool Lifeguard Qualification before you start.

While previous experience in leisure, hospitality, or a waterpark environment is a plus, we’re primarily looking for individuals with the right energy, personality, and passion for guest experience. If this sounds like you, go ahead and take the plunge!
