Providing affordable access to a wide range of sports and leisure facilities in a safe, clean, friendly and welcoming space, their goal is to support healthier and happier lives for everyone. Delivering these services relies on an enthusiastic, customer-focused team, and they're now looking for a Swimming Teacher to join their team and help make a positive difference every day.\nBy following the tried and tested Swim England learn to swim framework we develop the confidence in all of our swimmers through fun and enjoyable lessons. Many of our swimmers have progressed to swim competitively and even to represent our country.\nWe also have various positions available at our Quarry, Oswestry & Market Drayton Leisure Centres.\nTeaching our swimming lessons will see you delivering safe fun and progressive lessons, but this is also a mentality we take towards our teachers' careers and personal development. We want you to feel safe in your employment so we will contract you for as little or many teaching hours as you want around your current commitments.\nPaying for your own safeguarding and DBS checks aren’t fun or cheap so we provide these for you!

Please submit your application and we will be in touch when we have a course running near you.\nThis role will require a DBS check.\nWhy Join us\nA place you can make an impact: 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.\nA place you can count on: Our swimming teachers are integral to the running of our centres, so as well progressing into aquatics coordination you can move into other centre management roles in one of our 55 facilities.\nA place for you: Teaching can lead to a great sense of accomplishment as you watch people progress and work with your local community. And as you are supporting your students, we will be supporting you with ongoing training and development.\nWhat we offer\nFor all Leisure benefits please see Trust and Serco Leisure Employee Benefits\n#leisurejobs #sercoap\nSerco Leisure is one of the UK's leading national operators of leisure centres, destination venues and elite sporting facilities, managing sites, services and recruitment on behalf of the Leisure Trust.\nOur inclusive recruitment commitment:\nWe prioritise your skills and potential, and champion equal opportunities for all.
