About the role

Leisure attendant - relief/casual positions available at Dukeries and Newark

Active4Today is looking for leisure attendants to work at both Dukeries, Leisure Centre, Ollerton and Newark Sports and Fitness Centre.

Leisure attendants keep our customers safe in the pool setting, so you'll need a valid pool lifeguard qualification. (There is a course taking place in July. Please contact the customer services team for more details).

The post holders will also support the full operations of the building including setting up and taking down of equipment for activities and cleaning tasks. There’s lots going on, with a busy programme of set ups and changeovers, and regular contact with customers, so being sensitive to their needs is required.

£12.85 - £13.05 per hour / £24,796 - £25,185 per annum pro rata (pay award pending)

In return, we offer excellent terms and conditions which include:
