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 enjoy teamwork, you might be the perfect fit! This role can be busy and physically demanding, so being alert, active, and ready to dive in is essential.
To join our team, you’ll need to:
- Be a strong and confident swimmer
- 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. Previous experience in leisure, hospitality, or a waterpark environment is a plus, but what we value most is your energy, personality, and passion for guest experience. If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Go on, take the plunge!
