Millfield School is currently seeking a highly motivated individual who is passionate about all things related to pool management to join us as a Swimming Pool and Sports Facilities Duty Manager.
Millfield boasts an exceptional reputation when it comes to swimming, encompassing our comprehensive student swim programs, private lessons, and magnificent 50 and 25-meter pools. Our remarkable team of Supervisors and pool facilities staff are integral to our continued success.
To maintain our high standards, we require applicants with a valid NPLQ certification, and ideally previous experience in lifeguarding and leadership (although this is not essential). As a key member of our team, the ideal candidate should have previous experience working in a busy pool setting and possess a confident and outgoing demeanour, strong communication skills, excellent organisational skills, adeptness in problem-solving, the ability to lead by example, and a willingness to go the extra mile to ensure that all tasks are carried out to the highest standard.
The key responsibilities of this role include being a key holder, leading a team of lifeguards and swim teachers, performing lifeguard duties at both the Millfield Senior Pool and Millfield Prep Pool, and ensuring that all health and safety regulations, codes of practice, and operating procedures are followed at all times to ensure the safety and welfare of all users. You will be responsible for setting up and dismantling equipment, maintaining the facilities' cleanliness and hygiene standards, as well as supervising the Cricket Centre and Golf Centre. Previous experience in the leisure industry or customer service will also be an added advantage.
This is a full-time, all year-round role working 35 hours per week on a rota basis covering the opening hours of both our swimming pools during days, evenings and weekends for a salary of £22,022 per annum.
You will also receive a number of staff benefits including generous holiday entitlement, freshly prepared lunches for only £10 per month, access to the school facilities, and discounts/cashback on high street shops and restaurants through the school’s Employee Assistance Programme.
