- Basic IT skills (MS Office, booking systems) and ability to learn technical systems (e.g., radios, alarms).
- Ability to connect with diverse people and work independently or in a team.
- Ability to learn and follow all pool safety standards and procedures.

- Career development opportunities with ongoing training
- Generous holiday entitlement (starting at 32 days, increasing up to 40 days with service)
