General Manager
Ready for an exciting career at Halo Leisure?
We have an exciting opportunity available to develop and grow your management skills, at a time of regrowth for the leisure industry and for these centres. Community-focused activity provision has never been more important and you’ll be joining us at a time of enormous opportunity.
Halo centres are all vital community assets which are well used and supported by the local population. There is always room for growth and you will be a key player in the future of this centre with the opportunity to make a real difference, at a time of genuine improvement in services on offer for the local community. These opportunities do not come around every day!
We’re offering a nurturing and supportive environment, an engaged and experienced regional line manager and a centre to call your very own.
You will need a couple of years supervisory or duty management experience, earned in a customer service environment, an ambitious streak and a willingness to learn and mature on the job. You will also relish a challenge and want to support your team through a period of change and development. We’ll be setting you challenging sales and growth targets too, so be ready to sell the benefits of this brilliant centre to your community.
The teams at Bridgnorth Endowed Leisure Centre are small, so you will be ‘on shift’ for most of your working week. You will need to hold a National Pool Lifeguard Qualification or equivalent (or be ready, willing and able to achieve this within an agreed timescale). We’ll also encourage you to qualify as a swimming teacher and there is the opportunity to earn regular, additional income by being part of our learn-to-swim team.
