Duty Manager - Darrick Wood Pools

Mytime Active are looking for a Duty Manager for our Darrick Wood Leisure Centre. If you have the talent and ambition to be a Duty Manager, there’s never been a more exciting time to progress with Mytime Active.

About the role

We’re looking for experienced Duty Managers or ambitious and talented Senior Recreation Assistants who are passionate about the leisure industry.

So, if you’re looking for a desk job, this isn’t for you – as there’s no such thing as a typical day as Duty Manager. That’s what makes the role so special. Here, you could be doing anything from unlocking the leisure centre and setting up, to ordering supplies and checking everything is perfect for your customers. Then, once the day is in full swing, you’ll ensure it’s all running as it should be – handling customer queries, managing your team and ensuring the successful operation of the gym, pool and other facilities. Your own development is just as important, as we’ll train you to sharpen your skills in this diverse Duty Manager role.

Duties:

1.To assist the General Manager in managing the daily operation of the facilities and the organisation of activities, to ensure that the overall service complies with the policies and standards set by Bromley Mytime.

2.To assist with the overall function of Reception, including customer services, reconciliation, deliveries, memberships, bookings, telephone enquiries and complaints, and ensure that an appropriate level of service is maintained together with a high level of customer satisfaction.

5.Assist with the organisation of all activities, groups and events/special programmes administered by the Centre.

6.Ensure that all reasonably practicable steps and precautions are taken to meet the requirements of the Health & Safety at Work Act and the Health & Safety procedures documented in the QMS

7.To monitor Pool Plant and equipment in liaison with the Technical team and take any corrective action to meet the swimming pool and facilities environmental standards.

8.To monitor and supervise the work standards of front line operational staff, in particular Recreation and Senior Recreation Assistants, receptionists, catering and buzz zone staff and cleaners.

If you’re a fast-thinker who’s calm under pressure, responsible and a natural with people from all walks of life, this is your chance to progress as a Duty Manager. We also look for integrity, a can-do attitude, health and safety knowledge, and a customer service focus, combined with relevant professional qualifications such as NPLQ, First Aid, Fitness Instructor and Pool Plant, or equivalent.

The ability to be able to swim 2 lengths in under 90 seconds and pass a swim test is important to take to you through to the next stage. A National Pool Lifeguard Qualification would be great, but we can provide that training for you.
