  • Loves being active in the outdoors or has a passion for sport & leisure - this is a demanding role so you will need a reasonable level of fitness
  • Ideally you will have experience of interacting with children, such as being involved with scouts/guides/cadet groups, coaching sports teams, helping out at youth groups or caring for younger family members

We are renowned for our personal development & investment in people, we are ready to support you in your career development, each step of the way! You’ll have all the training you need to be confident and successful in your role, be equipped with a personal development plan, and access to nationally recognised qualifications funded by PGL to give your career the very best start.

  • Doing good does you good - paid time-off to volunteer your time to worthwhile causes.

We pride ourselves on hiring the best people, and recognise the importance and benefits of a diverse and inclusive team. However, the protection and safeguarding of the children visiting our centres is our primary concern. So all colleagues are required to undergo an Enhanced criminal records check (known as a DBS), which we will pay for. You will be required to provide a 5 year address history and ID documentation (ie British or Irish passport or birth certificate). If you have a conviction related to violence, drugs or safeguarding this could affect your application. Not all criminal convictions will be a bar to working for us and we will consider the results on an individual basis. You can find more information on DSB checks on the gov.uk website.
