GLL is looking for a Sailing Instructor to work at Stoke Newington West Reservoir Centre. If you have the skills and ambition to join us as a Sailing Instructor, this is a strong time to step into the role. This is more than an instructor job; it's a long-term career in watersports.

  • Clear communication and confidence leading groups
  • Solid understanding of water safety and risk management
  • Ability to work as part of a team
