Activity Instructor/Group Leader (Lifeguard) - Torquay

  • We're so proud to say that we are real Living Wage accredited. This means we will continue to pay well above the National Minimum Wage, so our pay rate is 12 with the opportunity for paid overtime (6 day working) during our peak periods. 
  • Full Time Fixed Term Contract from March 2025 until October 2025, we can offer varying start and end dates between these months.

Use your lifeguarding expertise to enrich young lives 

PGL is a world where children achieve the 'impossible'. 

Our residential adventure camps create extraordinary breakthroughs by instilling a love of adventure and the great outdoors, encouraging independence and empowering them to achieve amazing things in the future. 

Our purpose is to enrich the lives of children through the transformative power of adventure. Will you join us? 

Being a Lifeguard at PGL 

Working with kids requires energy, confidence and effort; but we guarantee it's never, ever boring. Based either Barton Hall in Devon, or Windmill Hill in East Sussex, you'll be interacting with our guests, encouraging safe water play & swimming activities, and always be ready to recognise and react to unsafe situations.  

You won't always be on water; you could also be running land-based activity sessions, lighting campfires, building shelters, singing songs or lending a helping hand to your hospitality colleagues. No two days will ever be the same. 

Are you a PGL person? 

You'll need your 'National Pool Lifeguarding' qualification. Apart from that, no experience is needed, your character is what we value most. PGL people are: 

  • Passionate about adventure and the great outdoors 
  • Friendly people who flourish in team environments 
  • Determined and resilient (peak periods are challenging) 

Above all, it's our core values of FUN, SAFETY, QUALITY, INCLUSIVITY, TEAMWORK and RESPECT that unite us.  

A place to thrive 

No matter your background, ethnicity, age, neurodivergence or anything else ... PGL is a place to be yourself, have fun, make lifelong friends and celebrate what makes you brilliantly unique. 

Fair pay and benefits for all 

  • Happy holidays On top of your annual leave, you'll also get your birthday off and paid volunteering days to help worthwhile causes 
  • 24/7 access to our Wellbeing Hub alongside our Employee Assistance Program  
  • Access to our financial wellbeing platform for financial support if you need it  
  • Training and mentoring programme, career pathways, aided development and qualifications in future seasons 
  •  Big savings and exclusive perks at 100s of high street retailers, PGL discounted holidays and 20% discount in all our on-site shops 

PGL is part of PGL Beyond, a group of innovative companies transforming the world of adventure through enriching experiences and breakthroughs.

We hire the best talent and value a diverse, inclusive team; so, we are dedicated to ensuring our application process is accessible to everyone and are happy to provide helpful adjustments to make it easier to complete. Simply email or call us with detail around the adjustments you need. However, our top priority is the safety of the guests on our centres. Therefore, all employees must undergo an Enhanced criminal records check (known as DBS or PVG), which we pay for. You will need to provide a 5-year address history and ID (such as passport/birth certificate). Convictions related to violence, drugs, or safeguarding may affect your application. Not all convictions will disqualify you, as we assess each case individually.
