If you have the passion, talent and ambition to be an Assistant Manager with us here at Better Swindon Oasis there's never been a more exciting time to progress with GLL. This is more than a management role - it's a career. Supporting the smooth running of one of the largest leisure centres in the GLL estate, you'll ensure the health, safety and enjoyment of customers and colleagues alike. The pool includes a large leisure pool with three flumes, wave machines, a water cannon and pirate ship. The pool itself is in the top three busiest swimming pools and income generators in the whole business.

There's no such thing as a typical day as an Assistant Manager. That's what makes this hands-on role so special. Here, you could be doing anything from producing reports, doing building checks, advising Duty Managers and ensuring compliance with health, safety and fire procedures, to inspiring your team to be the best they can be as well as managing the operational teams, standards, expenditure control, contractor relations and IQL audits.

So, if you're ready to go the extra mile, in return, we'll develop and train you to sharpen your skills in this diverse Assistant Manager role. You'll need to be competent at delivering training and looking at ways of improving processes in centre to fit the requirements of so many colleagues. Highly organised with budgeting skills and a can-do attitude, you'll be a fast learner who's focused on customer care. Written and verbal communication skills will be vital too, as you build relationships with customers, colleagues and contractors. We're also looking for an Assistant Manager with a leisure degree or equivalent experience, NPLQ, PPO (desirable), Pool Management Qualification, FAAW deep knowledge of leisure centre operations and a track record of managing in a busy wet/dry leisure centre.
