Casual Team Member | Allan Brewster Recreation

Auckland Council’s Pools and Leisure has an opportunity for a Casual Team Member position at our busy Allan Brewster Leisure Centre.

As a Casual Team Member, no two days will be the same! You’ll help us with customer support, administration, and deliver an exciting range of community fitness and school holiday programmes, from skating to inline hockey, to boxing and more!

Responsibilities

• Delivering exceptional service to our customers and visitors;
• Supporting with the delivery of a variety of exciting sports and recreational programmes for young adults and youth;
• Helping the Centre maintain a caring, fun and safe fitness and leisure environment;
• Providing assistance to Centre management with administration and operational duties; and
• Supporting with Centre activities including sporting leagues and daily timetabled programmes.

This is an on-site casual position. The shifts are subject to change according to the roster and the needs of the centre.

Our Centre opens 7 days a week, Mon–Fri : 7am–8 : 30pm,Sat–Sun : 8am–6pm, so flexibility is essential.

You’ll already be passionate about sports and recreation, and ready to step into a frontline customer service role. It goes without saying that you’ll be responsible when it comes to working with children. You’ll have a flexible approach and be able to use your initiative to facilitate suitable programmes for kids. An enthusiastic team player, you’ll have a positive attitude and infectious energy and be committed to providing your customers with an exceptional experience.

Ideally, you’ll hold a current First Aid Certificate and have a good understanding of health and safety procedures. However, if not, training will be provided. Previous experience working with children is beneficial, and preferred. Importantly, you’ll be committed to maintaining a high degree of professionalism in your work.

Previous experience in teaching, coaching, or gymnastics is a strong advantage for this role — especially if you’ve coached sports like basketball or netball or have experience as an umpire. You’ll need to feel confident managing groups of children during after-school activities. A full driver’s license is required, as school pick-ups and drop-offs are likely to be part of your responsibilities.

We aim to upskill and progress your career, so you can train and take on other functions within our centres.

By the same token, if we occasionally need some help in other areas such as on our front desk and general customer service duties, as a team member, you may be called on to cover these areas if short staffed or at peak periods.
