No day will ever be the same and you will enjoy the variety of working with lots of different team members and guests.

Key Responsibilities - Splash
Our Splash Waterworld is one of the busiest and most exciting places on resort, packed with thrilling flumes, high-speed slides, various swimming zones, and guests having fun. As a Lifeguard, you’ll be right in the middle of it all.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.

You’ll be making sure guests are having an amazing time while keeping everyone safe in and around the pool. This isn’t just a sit-and-stare role. Whether you’re supervising the slides, keeping an eye on the wave pool, or running poolside activities, you’ll be creating memorable moments for our guests and building real connections with the people around you.

We’re looking for people who are energetic, switched-on, responsible, and love being around others. You stay calm under pressure, communicate clearly, and work well as part of a team. Because this role can be busy and physically demanding, you’ll need to be alert, active, and ready to get stuck in.

- Be a strong and confident swimmer
- Have excellent awareness and attention to detail
- Be confident responding to emergency situations
No NPLQ? No problem. If you've got the right attitude and a strong swimming ability, we'll support you in gaining your National Pool Lifeguard Qualification.
