Job Description

Dive Into Leadership - Train the Next Wave of Lifeguards!

Do you love teaching, thrive in the water, and want to play a crucial role in saving lives? We're seeking a passionate and professional Lifeguard Instructor certified by the American Red Cross (ARC) to join our team and lead the charge in training future lifesavers.

As a Lifeguard Instructor , you'll not only teach lifesaving skills - you'll instill confidence, promote water safety, and serve as a role model for both new and experienced aquatics professionals.

What You'll Do

  • Teach & Certify: Deliver engaging, high-quality American Red Cross Lifeguarding, CPR/AED, and First Aid classes in accordance with ARC standards.
  • Prep Like a Pro: Coordinate and organize all course logistics - from setup and supplies to student materials and certifications.
  • Inspire Safety: Motivate and mentor lifeguard candidates to take water safety seriously and develop the skills to respond to emergencies with confidence.
  • Assess & Coach: Evaluate participant performance, provide constructive feedback, and uphold ARC evaluation criteria for passing.
  • Stay Current: Maintain up-to-date ARC Instructor credentials and participate in professional development opportunities when available.
  • Collaborate: Work closely with aquatics leadership, on-site teams, and other instructors to create a seamless, professional training experience.

What You Bring

  • Required: Current American Red Cross Lifeguard Instructor (LGI) certification
  • Preferred: Additional instructor certifications (e.g., CPR/AED for Professional Rescuers, First Aid, Water Safety Instructor)
  • Strong communication and classroom management skills
  • Ability to engage, motivate, and lead diverse groups of learners
  • Confidence in the water and comfort, demonstrating physical skills
  • Reliability, professionalism, and an upbeat, safety-first attitude

Schedule & Availability

  • Flexible schedule required - including evenings and weekends as classes demand
  • Seasonal increases in course demand (spring/summer)
  • Opportunities for ongoing and recurring course instruction

Why Join Us?

  • Competitive compensation
  • All ARC instructor materials and training supplies provided
  • Opportunity to grow into aquatic leadership or risk management roles
  • Meaningful work: every class you teach helps save lives

Ready to Lead from the Pool Deck?

If you're an ARC-certified Lifeguard Instructor who thrives on structure, service, and splash-worthy impact - we want to hear from you!

Apply now and help shape the next generation of water safety professionals!
