Job Description:
GLL is looking for a full-time Recreation Assistant to work at Rivermead Leisure Centre in Reading. If you have the skills and ambition to join our team, this is more than a job, it's a career.
A Recreation Assistant's job cannot be underestimated, and neither can the responsibility that comes with this vital lifeguarding role. If you are calm under pressure, highly responsible, and natural with people from all walks of life, this is your chance to develop as a Recreation Assistant.
As a Recreation Assistant, your passion for swimming and love of great customer service will shine through when supervising our customers in the pool, as well as supporting the team in keeping our centres clean and tidy.
What you need:
1. A real focus on customer service.
2. Passion and personality.
3. Knowledge of health and safety.
4. Be a great team player.
5. You will need a National Pool Lifeguard Qualification (NPLQ).
6. Ideally, you will have up-to-date NPLQ training records; if not, the NPLQ training can be provided subject to passing a swim test.
What you’ll do:
1. You will experience regular pool rotations.
2. Supervising and cleaning the pool area.
3. Setting up equipment.
4. Dealing with customer queries.
5. When not poolside, you will be a key support to your team on a daily basis, from preparing Studios, Gyms, or Sports Halls for various activities to the general cleaning and upkeep of the centre.
As a charitable social enterprise owned by its staff, GLL has a great range of benefits for its employees:
1. Learning & development to support career development.
2. Discounted gym membership for you and your partner.
3. Industry-leading rates of pay.
4. Opportunity to join the GLL Society and have a say in how we are run plus associated social events.
5. Exclusive discounts on our villas in Portugal.
6. Exclusive discounts on our Ski chalets in Bulgaria.
7. Career pathways and professional development are just the start. To ensure you stay at the top of your game, we provide training with practical and theory elements too.
8. Discounts across thousands of retailers (GLL Extras).
9. 25% off Red Letter Days.
10. 25% off Buy A Gift.
11. 20% off GLL spa experience treatments and associated products.
