Aquatics Manager/Swim Program Lead

British Swim School of Kitchener-Waterloo

Are you passionate about water safety and making a difference in the lives of young swimmers? Do you thrive in a vibrant, hands-on environment? If so, British Swim School of Kitchener-Waterloo is looking for you!

As our new Aquatics Manager, you will help create a fun and professional atmosphere, providing customers and their children with an exceptional learning experience. In this role, you’ll work closely with the franchise owner and our team of swim instructors, helping to shape our school’s culture and support smooth operations. You’ll also play a pivotal role in attracting new families to our school and ensuring they remain part of our community.

Important Requirement: This is an in-water role, so you’ll be actively teaching classes, getting wet, and working directly with students. Additionally, this position requires the ability to travel to the USA for training, so candidates must be eligible for international travel.

Position Details:

Type: Part-time to start, with a strong possibility of moving to full-time.
Schedule: Flexible hours, including weekends and evenings. Regular travel to multiple pool locations within the assigned region will also be required.

Responsibilities:

Provide in-water swim lessons to adults and children, following the British Swim School curriculum.
Conduct initial training and onboarding for all new swim instructors.
Use British Swim School instructor development tools to regularly assess instructor performance and provide feedback.
Offer support and guidance in managing challenging class situations.
Assist in growing the business and attracting new customers.

What We’re Looking For:

A genuine passion for water safety and drowning prevention.
Willingness to be in the water, teaching hands-on.
Experience working with children in an educational or recreational setting.
Supervisory experience or military service background is a plus.
Lifeguard certification (preferred, but training can be provided).
Fluent in English; additional language skills are a bonus!

If you’re ready to dive into a rewarding role, receive top-tier training in one of the best swim programs in the industry, and enjoy a competitive compensation package, apply now.

Come join us at British Swim School of Kitchener-Waterloo, where we’ve been teaching “Survival of the Littlest” since 1981.

Compensation: $23.00 - $26.00 per hour

Working at British Swim School is more than just a job; it’s a chance to create a lasting impact that could change a child's life.

As part of the British Swim School Team, you play a role in your local community, empowering others and sharing your passion. It’s a chance to be part of a fun-loving team of dedicated people who are committed to promoting water safety and a lifelong love of the water.

While we teach swimming to people of all ages and abilities, most of our students are preschool and elementary-aged kids. Our instructors should like working with this age group and be good at making parents feel comfortable. It's helpful if you have experience with children or in a child-focused job, but it's not required if you can show the right attitude. The job comes with specialized training in our advanced and unique British Swim School approach.

We also have exciting opportunities with our Customer Service Team, even if you're not in the pool. These are the people committed to providing the best service in the industry. In these roles, you might talk to parents on the phone or by the pool. Wherever you are, the aim is to make everyone feel like part of the British Swim School Family as we focus on ensuring the “Survival of the Littlest.”

Each franchise location is independently owned and operated by a franchisee (franchise owner). Your application will go directly to the franchisee, and all hiring decisions will be made by the management of this franchisee. All inquiries about employment at this franchisee should be made directly to the franchise location, and not to British Swim School Corporate.
