South London, United Kingdom GLL Full time

Health Referral Facilitator - Full time, 40 hours per week

Based: Croydon, South London

If you have a genuine passion for supporting people, join us as a Health Referral Instructor and help to improve people’s level of fitness, health and ultimately, quality of life.

GLL is a charitable social enterprise and the UK’s largest leisure provider, partnering with local authorities to run leisure centres, swimming pools and world-class sporting venues. As a not-for-profit organisation, we are different. Reinvesting back into our facilities, communities and people, we’re growing - and are committed to developing the skills of our Healthwise Facilitator too, through accredited and on the job training.

The Healthwise Service is a physical activity on referral pathway which supports eligible adults to become more physically active and gain the knowledge, skills and confidence to maintain and improve their physical activity levels. As an Health Referral Instructor, you’ll help us to support people in changing their entire lifestyle.

It all begins with an assessment. People can be nervous, so you’ll need a patient, calm approach that puts them at ease. After identifying their needs, you’ll then demonstrate the equipment and design a bespoke programme, from simple exercises to group classes. Naturally, you’ll chart their progress too, taking measurements, discussing how they’re getting on and showing just how far they’ve come. Rather than short term results, your focus will be on helping people to gain the tools and confidence they need to take responsibility for their own body and health.

Ideally, we are looking for an experienced Exercise Referral Instructor, but the role would suit qualified Personal Trainers too. People inspired by the opportunity to make a difference (and enjoy a regular wage, too). If you are a fitness professional or someone with an academic background in a sport or health related discipline and relevant vocational experience who’s confident, sensitive and able to inspire a wide range of people often with low fitness and confidence levels this is for you. That means you will need to be CIMPSA registered with an NVQ Level 3 Fitness Instructor, a Level 3 GP Referral qualification and experience of delivering lifestyle interventions too.

Few fitness careers are as rewarding as this. So if you are motivated to progress your career with an organisation that improves lives, join us and enjoy great benefits including opportunities to work across various locations, flexible hours, a uniform and discounted membership at all our leisure centres.

Salary: Between: £29,734.02 and £31,166.66

Closing date: £09/06/2023

The welfare and safety of the children in our care is of the utmost importance to us at GLL. We follow safer recruitment procedures to ensure that our staff are checked and appropriate to work with children and young people.

Therefore we’ll require you to complete an enhance DBS check before you will be allowed to start work.
