Are you a lively and enthusiastic Teaching Assistant? Want to work with a fun and vibrant team that get kids engaged and excited? Interested in furthering your skills and gaining more qualifications in Swimming?
We are looking for a Teaching Assistant to join our team!!
Here at Swim Central we are super proud of where we have come in the last decade. We are completely customer focused, providing an environment where swimmers of all ages and abilities can come and build on their swimming skills. What we do is fun! We play games and we create under-water adventures - whilst underlining this with the principles to improve technique and confidence of future swimmers.
As a Teaching Assistant, we will support your development!! We will put you through CPD Swimming Teacher courses to help you in boosting your skills. You will get monthly training (and cake!) in emergency first aid and lifeguarding - we will help you to achieve lifeguard qualifications if you don’t have them already AND you’ll also get a special, cosy uniform to keep you warm if you ever need to teach in the water!
So what do we need from you as a Swimming Teacher?

• Level 1 Swim England Swimming Teacher Qualification (or STA equivalent)
• NRASTC or UK lifeguard qualification OR be willing to achieve one after you are hired
• Knowledge of health and safety
• Proactive in dealing with parents and any enquiries, keep track of swimmer progress
• Driver's Licence and access to vehicle - we have 2 sites we operate across Bath, so it would be really useful if you can travel
