From poolside safety to top-notch guest service, you'll be the reason families relax, kids have fun, and guests leave with memories they'll never forget.

For the right candidate, staff accommodation is available right here on park, offering a truly unique opportunity to live and work in one of Scotland’s most beautiful countryside settings.

Erigmore Leisure Park is nestled in the heart of Perthshire, surrounded by stunning woodland and just a stone’s throw from the peaceful banks of the River Tay. Wake up to fresh air, birdsong, and breathtaking natural scenery every day.

When you're off duty, your time is yours to enjoy:

  • Relax outdoors and soak up the sunshine in our scenic park surroundings

  • Wander along riverside trails or explore the quaint nearby villages of Birnam and Dunkeld

  • Discover historic castles, waterfalls, and forest walks across the Perthshire countryside

  • Enjoy peaceful evenings under the stars or cosy up in our on-park facilities

Typical duties and responsibilities:

  • Keeping a watchful eye over our pool and ensuring all guests are safe and supported

  • Performing first aid, water rescues, and responding to poolside incidents with confidence

  • Delivering amazing guest service and handling enquiries with a friendly attitude

  • Monitoring poolside conduct and keeping facilities clean and well-presented

  • Completing regular water tests and reporting anything out of the ordinary

What We’re Looking for:

  • A current NPLQ (or equivalent) qualification is desirable, however we can provide training for the right candidate. 

  • Recent experience working as a Lifeguard

  • A strong communicator with a great sense of teamwork

  • Someone who stays calm under pressure and acts fast when needed

  • Bonus points for a Pool Plant qualification (but not essential—we’ll support your development!)
