Are you passionate about swimming?
Here at Oxford Leisure Community Trust, our goal is to encourage active, healthy lifestyles in an environment that is safe, warm, clean, friendly and fun. We are looking to recruit a Swimming Instructor to join our team.
By following the Swim England learn to swim framework, we develop the confidence in all of our swimmers through fun and enjoyable lessons. Many of our swimmers have progressed to swim competitively and even to represent our country.
Your responsibilities will include delivering safe, fun, and progressive swimming lessons. We also prioritize your career and personal development by offering flexible teaching hours that fit around your commitments.
We provide safeguarding and DBS checks at no cost to you, and you will be covered by our insurance. Working for us allows you to work within all our leisure centres and provides excellent personal and career development through continued training and learning opportunities.
Our in-house Aquatic Training Academy will provide ongoing training through specialist CPDs in swimming teaching, with a solid pathway for career progression into management or other areas in the business.
All our teachers receive a free membership, along with one for a friend or family member.
What you’ll need to do the role
You’ll need excellent customer service skills and be able to engage with people of all ages and backgrounds. You must hold either a STA Award/Certificate in Teaching Swimming or Swim England (formerly ASA) Level 2. Holding a valid RLSS UK NPLQ, RLSS UK NRASTC, or STA Safety Award for Teachers is advantageous but not essential, as we can provide training for these courses free of charge. This role will require a DBS check.
Why Serco
As a swimming teacher, you will help people develop essential skills for life, contributing to their health and happiness. Our swimming teachers are integral to the running of our centres, with opportunities to progress into aquatics coordination or other management roles.
