Aquatics - Lifeguard

MAKE A LASTING DIFFERENCE

Be a leader. Be a lifeguard! Thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds come to the Lincoln Y for water safety education, to learn to swim, and to meet their health and wellness goals in the pool. Lifeguards are essential to ensuring a safe environment for those individuals.

Responsibilities include

• Maintaining safe swimming conditions and watch over children, families and adults in and around our pools.

• Creating a positive atmosphere that promotes member safety and engagement.

Our Lifeguards are enthusiastic about their work because they get the opportunity to be a leader in all areas of our nonprofit mission: youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Plus, they also enjoy:

• A fun and engaging work environment where friendships are made

• Flexible schedules including opportunities to work seasonal or year round in our indoor and outdoor pools

• Room to grow

• Free Y membership at all YMCA of Lincoln locations for qualified staff

• Future employers respect the Y - build your resume
