Description
Our lifeguards are on hand to ensure our guests are having a great time as well as keeping safe in the pool and on the flumes in our Splash Waterworld!

Our business is open 7 days a week and therefore flexibility, reliability, and punctuality are all essential, as you will form an important part of a team.

This role will be offering contracts from 24-35 hours depending on living on or off site. Starting between the 1st April - 1st July until 8th September (Perfect for students) and a combination of midweek and weekend availability is required including evening finishes.
