Port Macquarie, New South Wales, Australia YMCA NSW Full time

We are now looking for Casual Swimming Instructors to join the team at Port Macquarie Pool - YMCA NSW. You will come with a passion for the water and an ability to teach essential skills about swimming. You must be available for work on weekends as well as weekdays.

About your new role

Our Swimming Instructors are a happy bunch, teaching young people the essential skill of swimming every day. They love seeing those big wide smiles as the children splash around having fun while gaining confidence and becoming safe in and around the water.

All our team have the following qualities in common:

  • Passion
  • Love the water
  • Enjoy working with children

Our Swimming Instructors are the aquatic artistes training the next generation of swimming superstars. Every day, they lead safe, stimulating, and always-fun lessons that build confidence and capability in developing young people. As a Swimming Instructor at The Y, you won't just be a strong swimmer; you'll also be a strong communicator and a dynamic leader, motivating and educating our guests to build strong, active, and safe behaviours in the water.

If you're a safety-conscious 'Aqua Expert' with strong people skills and infectious energy, you could be our next Swimming Instructor. Expect perks like flexible hours and free facility membership, along with support to build valuable people, leadership, and life skills while making a difference in your community.

In addition to the satisfaction of teaching children swimming and water safety, we offer:

  • Supportive team environment
  • Discounted access to some of our services across the Y
  • Flexible hours
  • Career pathways in the aquatics field

If this sounds like the job for you, apply today

To be successful in this role, you will have:

  • CPR Certificate
  • Teacher of Swimming and Water Safety License
  • Working with Children Check
  • Police Check (Paid by the Y)

Who are we?

The Y NSW is a profit-for-purpose organisation focused on healthy living, social impact, and empowering young people. We operate 18 recreation centres, 47 out-of-school-hours care services, and two camping locations which employ 1,500 staff across NSW – and fund our diverse range of enriching community programs.

We believe in building a diverse, inclusive workforce that reflects the communities we serve. We encourage people of all genders, ages, religions, disabilities, sexual orientations, family and caring responsibilities, and cultures, including people of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage, to apply.

Commitment to Safeguarding

At the Y, we are committed to empowering all children and young people to feel safe and be safe, in their families and communities. We embed safeguarding into everything we do to ensure that children and young people are kept at the forefront of our programs and services. We also ensure that all our candidates are appropriately screened to make sure that the right people are in the right roles to keep our children and young people safe.
