GLL is currently looking for swimming teachers based in Merton. Join us as a swimming teacher and play a key role in developing our customers' swimming skills. This is your chance to deliver safe, consistent swimming lessons that give people real confidence in the water – and an invaluable life skill.
As an experienced swimming teacher, you’ll thrive on supporting people to achieve their potential. Taking a pupil’s nature and needs into account, swimming teachers draw on their knowledge of practices, progression, and teaching points, applying it in the most effective way. Naturally, there’ll be some administration involved, but rest assured that almost all of your time will be spent doing what you do best: teaching people to become stronger swimmers, whether in a group or one-to-one, and from children to adults.
We’re looking for swimming teachers who are approachable, with the friendly, patient nature needed to build people’s trust, motivate pupils, and encourage with praise. You’ll need to be STA Award or Certificate level or Swim England Level 2 qualified and ideally have the National Rescue Award for Swimming Teachers & Coaches. Knowledge of health, safety, and other relevant legislation will be vital too, as will an understanding of Child Protection Policy.
What you will do:
* Maintain a good and positive image of the Centre to customers and the public by providing a welcoming, helpful, and professional poolside service.
* Comply with the commitments outlined in the ‘Customer Charter’, ensuring that standards are maintained as stipulated.
* Ensure the safety and control of the pupils within the swimming lesson and ensure that all relevant regulations applicable to the centre's operation are enforced and complied with.
* Actively encourage pupils to enroll in further courses and short courses.
* Assist with new enrollments and re-enrollments as required by the General Manager.
* Understand and follow the Safeguarding Policy and Procedure & Behaviour policy contained within the Swim School product.
* Record and complete relevant awards in line with expected standards, ensuring that the levels are obtained.
* Teach to the standard set within the product manual to ensure a consistent approach throughout all the centres.
As a charitable social enterprise owned by its staff, GLL has a great range of benefits for its employees:
* Salary of up to £17.96 per hour, depending on qualification.
* Learning & development to support career development.
* Discounted gym membership for you and your partner.

* Opportunity to join the GLL Society and have a say in how we are run, plus associated social events.
* Exclusive discounts on our villas in Portugal.
* Exclusive discounts on our ski chalets in Bulgaria.
* Health assurance.
* 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.
* Discounts across thousands of retailers (GLL Extras).
* 25% off Red Letter Days.
