Lifeguard at Byske Outdoor Pool and Vitbergsbadet

The summer at the pool is full of activity, and as a lifeguard, you are the one who ensures that everything runs smoothly. You make sure it is safe, clean, and that everyone has a secure and enjoyable day by the pool. A job for you who likes responsibility, people, and being where the action is.

YOUR ROLE

As a lifeguard, you are an important part of our guests' experience – both in and out of the pool. Your mission is to create safety, maintain order, and provide excellent service to everyone visiting the pool. You will be responsible for monitoring pools, water purification, cleaning, cashier duties, and various service tasks. The job requires being attentive, taking responsibility, and collaborating with colleagues. You need to be able to read situations, act quickly when something happens, and contribute to a positive atmosphere around the pool.

With us, you work outdoors, stay active all day, and become part of a team that makes a difference for hundreds of guests every day. The summer job period for Byske outdoor pool and Vitbergsbadet is from June 13 to August 16.

YOUR SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

To work as a lifeguard, you need to:

• have good swimming skills and feel comfortable in the water (tested through a swimming test)
• have very good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written
• have basic knowledge of English, so you can understand and provide information
• have sufficient physical ability to swim, run, and lift when necessary

It is an advantage if you have training in CPR and/or first aid. It is also advantageous if you have experience in similar work or other service occupations – for example, in cafes, tourism, recreational activities, or working with children and youth.

In the role of lifeguard, you need to maintain focus and stay calm even when a lot is happening. You meet many people every day – families with children, teenagers, and colleagues – and your ability to listen, show respect, and treat everyone with patience and kindness makes a big difference. When something doesn’t go as planned, you take initiative and find solutions. You contribute to a safe collaboration within the team and are someone others feel they can rely on.
