The Town of Claremont Aquatic Centre is a family-oriented outdoor centre that is open year-round. The centre includes a 25 metre pool, a 50 metre pool, a diving pool, a water playground, and a splash pad.

The Centre is looking for casual Duty Managers and Lifeguards to work across a seven (7) day a week roster. Shifts are available morning, day, evening and some public holidays. A current Pool Lifeguard Certificate, Senior First Aid, Bronze Medallion and a National Police Clearance are essential. A Pool Operators Certificate is also required for Duty Managers.

Key duties for both roles include:

• Supervision of swimmers and patrons in accordance with established procedures.
• Providing a clean, safe and friendly environment for patrons.
• Carrying out minor maintenance tasks such as water quality control, minor repairs and corrosion control.
• Casual Lifeguards will be required at times, to work at reception and to assist with banking, sales and booking enquiries.
