Job Responsibilities

As a Swimming and Sports Hall Employee, you will have a varied workday with a focus on safety, service, and well-being:

• Lifeguarding – you are responsible for the safety of bathers together with your colleagues.
• Swimming Instruction – during the day, we conduct swimming instruction for the municipality's primary schools. In the evenings and on weekends, we offer swimming instruction for all ages in-house.
• Facility Maintenance – you ensure that the facility remains clean and fresh.
• Reception Work – you are the face of the hall and assist visitors with cash register services, bookings, questions, and general service.

Requirements

• We require relevant education or experience, such as training from the Swedish Association for Life Saving (e.g., pool lifeguard), swimming teacher or swimming teacher assistant training, upper secondary education with a relevant focus (e.g., Child and Youth Program), or other education/experience deemed equivalent by the employer.
• To succeed in this role, you need good language skills in Swedish and English, as a significant part of the job involves giving instructions and interacting with people in various situations.
• Basic computer skills are required for reception and administration, and experience with systems and digital tools is a merit.

Personal suitability is highly valued, and we offer complementary internal training for the right candidate.

Personal Qualities:

To thrive and succeed in this role, we believe you are loyal and demonstrate a positive attitude towards both the work and the operations. You are service-oriented and greet our guests in a calm, attentive, and friendly manner, with a drive to always find solutions. Since a large part of the job involves teaching and guiding, you are pedagogical and able to adapt your way of conveying knowledge to different people and situations. You communicate clearly and engagingly, both in smaller meetings and larger groups, while being receptive and flexible in your interactions.
