Employees say they love working at Goldfish Swim School because :

I love working closely with children and their families and using my background and experience as a swimmer to promote water safety and accomplish their goals! The management is also fantastic at both locations Ive worked at - Wexford and Fox Chapel - I feel truly valued as a person and not just someone who fills a position. I cant recommend Goldfish (both as a place for swim lessons and a place of employment) enough!

I love working at Goldfish because of the smiling kids' faces whenever they learn a new skill after all the hard work they are doing in the water! Its also a joy to know that I have the ability to save kids' lives around the water and make a difference!

What will you be doing?

Lifeguards are responsible for ensuring the success of swim lessons by :

  • Making sure you and your team are set up for success at every lesson by preparing for each shift and reviewing your lesson themes
  • Supervising lessons to ensure our Golden Safety Rules are being followed
  • Taking action to keep swimmers safe in and around the water
  • Maintaining your skills through ongoing training
  • Youll be there to encourage new and returning swimmers and to support them as they progress from mini and junior swimmers to gliders and pros!

    What can we offer you?

  • Consistent, 4-hour shifts so youll always know when youre working and never wonder if your hours will be reduced
  • Flexibility to pick up or add extra hours as a substitute if you want them
  • The only thing better than an outdoor summer pool job - were open all year round and its always 90 degrees and sunny
  • Recognition and rewards - Gift cards, swag or pizza after a long day in the pool, staff outings, community involvement events like planting trees and feeding our first responders and company-sponsored events like baseball games, bowling, and water park tickets. We support our team members at their sporting events, musicals and other activities.
  • Paid training including free E&A ILTP (lifeguard, CPR & AED) certification
  • Support from your leaders and your team both at work and in life, whether thats inviting you to bring your friends on board or providing open, honest communication in a positive environment
  • What will be expected of you?

  • You have to be patient & genuine - every swimmer learns at their own pace, in their own way. Your willingness to help each student as an individual and your ability to bring your own personality to your job are key to the success of both you and our students.
  • You must have communication skills to work not only with children, but with parents and team members as well
  • The ability to do quality work and represent Goldfish Swim Schools mission to change lives and make a difference every day by going above and beyond with every detail, meeting and exceeding expectations to create a golden experience
  • Doing the right things, making the right decisions and treating people with integrity, compassion and trust

  • 9 : 00-3 : 00 on Saturday
