Permanent Lifeguard Recruitment

When you get a gap in your team, we understand that time is of the essence to ensure you can maintain operational compliance in a swimming pool environment. But finding the right candidate to join your team can be a tricky task.

At 4Leisure, we pride ourselves on finding the right “fit” for our clients. That means more than just qualifications and compliance. It means taking the time to understand your business and what looks good for you.

Before introducing any candidates, we’ll always take time to understand your rota structure, facility type, qualification requirements, safeguarding expectations and customer service standards to make sure we get it right first time.

FAQs

What can 4Leisure support with?

Most of our lifeguard recruitment is on-demand ad hoc cover. We step in when someone calls in sick or goes on holiday, but we also manage full lifeguard rotas. We provide fully outsourced solutions for a range of businesses on a seasonal basis. We create large scale attraction campaigns, manage training and competency requirements and place permanent roles.

Can 4L advise me on recruitment strategy?

Absolutely. We work with multiple clients providing hiring advice including salary and benefits surveys, market insights and campaign strategy as well as creating bespoke solutions to deliver the people they need.

Can 4Leisure deliver courses?

Yes. We work with a number of external providers to provide courses for non-qualified Lifeguards. Some of our clients simply don’t have qualified lifeguards available in their area, so a blended approach of sourcing learners, training and employing them is something we’ve done for several major leisure operators.
