Are you passionate about swimming?

Here at Northern Community Leisure Trust, our goal is to get more people active by providing affordable, safe, and enjoyable lessons for all. We are recruiting for swimming teachers to grow our programmes to ensure we can achieve this. If you are passionate about ensuring all children and adults have access to affordable lessons, regardless of their ability or background, this role could be right for you.

By following the tried and tested Swim Ireland learn-to-swim framework, we develop confidence in all our swimmers through fun and enjoyable lessons. Many of our swimmers have progressed to swim competitively and even represent our country.

In this role, you will deliver safe, fun, and progressive swimming lessons. We also prioritize the career and personal development of our teachers. We want you to feel secure in your employment, offering contracts for as few or as many teaching hours as you desire, accommodating your current commitments.

We cover the costs for your safeguarding and DBS checks, and you won't need personal insurance as you will be covered by ours. Working for us allows you to operate within all our leisure centres and provides excellent personal and career development through continued training and learning opportunities.

Our in-house Aquatic Training Academy offers ongoing training through specialist CPDs in swimming teaching, giving you access to a range of training throughout your career. We also have a solid pathway for career progression into management or other areas in the business.

Serco manages these facilities on a day-to-day basis on behalf of the Trust.

What you'll need to do the role

You will have excellent customer service skills and be someone who enjoys interacting with people of all ages and backgrounds.

You must hold either a STA Award/Certificate in Teaching Swimming or Swim Ireland Level 2.

Holding a valid RLSS UK NPLQ, RLSS UK NRASTC, or STA Safety Award for Teachers is advantageous but not essential, as we can provide training to complete these courses free of charge.

This role will require a DBS check.
