GBP 10,000 - 40,000
Job description

Location: Market Drayton Leisure Centre

Working Hours: 4 hours per week

Salary: £11.00 to £15.60 per hour depending on experience

Are you passionate about swimming?

Shropshire Leisure Trust's goal is to get more people active by providing affordable, safe, and enjoyable lessons for all. We are currently recruiting for 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 England 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 represent our country.

Teaching our swimming lessons will see you delivering safe, fun, and progressive lessons. 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 safeguarding and DBS checks for you, and 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, as well as giving you 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 have a solid pathway in place for career progression into management or other areas in the business.

We share your passion for leisure and want you to embrace all the excellent services we provide to our customers, which is why all of our teachers are given a free membership as well as one for a friend or family member.

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 England (Previously ASA) 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.

If you do not yet hold the relevant qualifications to teach swimming but are looking to start a career with us, please do not worry as we have multiple qualified Swimming Teacher Tutors across our business and often run training courses. Please submit your application, and we will be in touch when we have a course running near you.

This role will require a DBS check.

What we offer:

  • Free membership at the Centre plus heavily discounted use of classes and facilities
  • Free safeguarding training and DBS check
  • Excellent Development and Training Opportunities
  • 6% employer matched pension contribution
  • 25 days annual leave pro rata
  • Life assurance up to 2x base salary
  • Simply health cash plan
  • Anytime health line
  • Employee assistance programme
  • Benefits portal offering discounts on eating out, travel, shopping, and entertainment
  • A safe and supportive culture
  • A chance to make a positive difference to the community

Why Serco:

Meaningful and vital work: Swimming not only makes people healthier and happier, it also teaches a skill for life. As one of our teachers, you will be at the forefront of helping people develop those skills.

A world of opportunity: Our swimming teachers are integral to the running of our centres, so as well progressing into aquatics coordination, they can move into other centre management roles in one of our 55 facilities.

Great people: Teaching can lead to a great sense of accomplishment as you watch people progress and work with your local community. As you support your students, we will be supporting you with ongoing training and development.
