The Role Outline: Your Shift at a Glance
As our Leisure Team Leader, you are the operational anchor on the floor. You will assist the management team in running the daily shifts, coaching our Leisure Assistants, and ensuring the club looks immaculate. When the managers are out of the building, you are the one making the decisions, solving problems, and keeping our members happy.
Why Village?
At Village, we do hospitality a little differently. We are all about personality, genuine connections, and creating lively spaces for our guests to work, eat, relax, and play. That is why we back our teams to be themselves, take ownership, learn new skills, and grow their careers.
Previous Experience
Previous experience working in a fast-paced leisure environment is essential, but your attitude, emotional intelligence, and natural leadership matter much more to us. If you are a proactive team player who loves helping others succeed and wants to take your first step into management, we will give you all the support and training you need. Because it really does take a Village.
How the Village Thrives
We live our culture through three simple commitments:
- We Can & We Do: We show up to make a genuine difference and do fantastic work every day, with purpose.
- We Will: Treat each other with respect and dignity. No ego, no drama. We try our best and look out for each other.
- We Care: We care about our impact on guests, the community, and each other.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Your Shift: What You Will Actually Be Doing
We do not just need someone to hand out towels. We need a visible, hands-on leader. We trust you to handle:
The Floor Leadership
Running the shift. You will be the visible leader on the gym and pool floor, making sure operational standards are flawless and keeping the team motivated and smiling.
The Guest Experience
Taking the heat. You will step in to handle member complaints and solve practical problems on the spot, ensuring the club's reputation stays top tier even when the managers are away.
The Team Development
Coaching the crew. You will assist with daily rotas, training, and inductions, using your experience to help your team members develop their own skills and careers.
The Operational Standards
Protecting the brand. You will enforce strict health and safety rules, manage cleanliness, and ensure the club is perfectly prepared for every single shift.
How We Succeed Together
We do not micromanage. It takes a village, so we believe in Ownership & Integrity, giving you the autonomy to run your shifts, solve practical problems, and own the floor. We Empower & Elevate our people. If you want Room to Grow, we provide excellent training and development to help you step up to a management role.
