Once we open, or at the start of your shift, you’ll be on rotation with other Lifeguards - monitoring various activities and attractions on a 30-minute cycle, as well as supervising guest leisure activities such as Aqua Jetting. At each of the Lifeguard stations you’ll be expected to maintain guest safety, whilst ensuring they are happy in their environment.
NOT QUALIFIED?
If you haven’t got your Lifeguard qualification yet, don’t worry. If you’re a strong swimmer and show an aptitude for the job, you can join our Lifeguard training scheme. Our training course means that you can be a Lifeguard at any age of life. We take people straight from college, as well as those considering a career change. It really is an amazing opportunity.

This disclosure, together with other selection information, will need to be satisfactory to the Company for employment to commence.
