Swimming Teacher

Location: Bangor Aurora, 3 Valentine Road, Co-Down, N. Ireland, BT20 4TH

Working Hours: Casual, Flexible around your current commitments

Salary: £17.12 per hour + excellent benefits

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 currently recruiting swimming teachers to grow our programmes to ensure we can do just that. If you are passionate about ensuring all children and adults have access to affordable lessons, no matter 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 the confidence in all our swimmers through fun and enjoyable lessons. Many of our swimmers have progressed to swim competitively and even to represent our country.

Teaching our swimming lessons will involve delivering safe, fun, and progressive lessons. This mentality extends to our teachers' careers and personal development. We want you to feel secure in your employment, so we will contract you for as few or as many teaching hours as you want around your current commitments.

We provide your safeguarding and DBS checks, so you won't have to pay for these yourself. Additionally, there’s no need to hold your own personal insurance, as you will be covered by ours. Working for us will enable you to work within all our leisure centres and provide excellent personal and career development through continued training and learning opportunities.

Our in-house Aquatic Training Academy will provide you with ongoing training through our specialist CPDs in swimming teaching, meaning you can access a range of training throughout your career. We also have a solid pathway in place for career progression into management or other areas in the business.

What you’ll need to do the role:

You will have excellent customer service skills and be someone who is happy to deal with people of all ages and backgrounds. You will need to hold either a STA Award/Certificate in Teaching Swimming or Swim Ireland Level 2.

Holding either a valid RLSS UK NPLQ, RLSS UK NRASTC, or STA Safety Award for Teachers would be advantageous but not essential, as we can provide the training to complete these courses free of charge. This role will require a DBS check.
