Job Order Detail

Description

The Lifeguard plays an important role, providing quality leisure programs, services and ensuring the safety of our military members and their families.
Our services are tailored to help families with the challenges they may face due to military life and make the most of everyday activities such as going to the pool or beach. We believe that when members of the Canadian Armed Forces are able to take good care of themselves and their families, they can do better both at home and at work. Whether families need to sign the kids up for swimming lessons, improve their
fitness, make friends in a new community, our services are here to help.
Lifeguarding is an exciting and rewarding job that carries great responsibility. Guards take courses and train hard for events they hope will never happen and which they work hard to prevent. When guarding you will prevent accidents and spot potential trouble
and intervene before it becomes life-threatening. You will explain safety rules to swimmers and enforce them. You will have a chance to expand your skills and share your passions as all with the goal of improving the quality of life for our military.
We are looking for dynamic, independent and motivated individuals to join our team, helping us ensure recreation stays safe and fun!
