At Serco, we're pleased to be recruiting on behalf of Basingstoke and Deane Community Leisure Trust.
Basingstoke and Deane Community Leisure Trust encourages active, healthy lifestyles across the local community. 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 Swimming Teachers to join their team and help make a positive difference every day.
By following the tried and tested Swim England learn to swim framework, we develop the confidence in all our swimmers through fun and enjoyable lessons. Many of our swimmers have progressed to swim competitively and even to represent our country.
Teaching 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.
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.
What you’ll need to do the role
- You will have excellent customer service skills and be someone who is happy to deal with people of all ages and backgrounds.
- You will need to hold either a STA Award/Certificate in Teaching Swimming or Swim England (Previously ASA) Level 2.
- Holding either a valid RLSS UK NPLQ, RLSS UK NRASTC, or STA Safety Award for Teachers would be advantageous but not essential as we can provide the training to complete these courses free of charge.
Serco manages these facilities on a day-to-day basis on behalf of the Trust.
Why join us
- A 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’ll be at the forefront of helping people develop those skills.
- A place you can count on: Our swimming teachers are integral to the running of our centers, so as well as progressing into aquatics coordination, they can move into other center management roles in one of our 55 facilities.
- A 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’re supporting your students, we’ll be supporting you with ongoing training and development.
