Why Tattershall Lakes?
Nestled in the stunning Lincolnshire countryside, Tattershall Lakes is a 400‑acre lakeside paradise bursting with life and adventure. From paddle‑boarding to jet skis, waterskiing, fishing, an aqua park, archery, high‑ropes, zip wire and indoor/outdoor pools, plus bars, restaurants, live entertainment and weekly events, it’s a haven for families, couples and pets.
What you’ll be doing:
As part of our team of holiday heroes, you will manage the grounds maintenance team to ensure everything is in good working order. Your work will include:
- Landscaping, including paving and fencing
- Grass cutting
- Training and developing the existing grounds team to enhance guests’ experience through a hands‑on approach and team engagement
- Department rotas in line with budget
- Recruitment
- Control of stock
- Pretty much anything else that other people can’t do!
Guests and staff will look to you to fix what’s broken and restore order, so you will need to be confident, friendly and obliging in addition to your practical skills. You will also need to work on bank holidays, evenings and weekends to keep the park running.
Skills, experience and qualities you’ll need:
- Understanding of health and safety at work
- Experience of managing a team of trades and general assistants
- Driving licence – essential
- Self‑thinking, proactive, excellent people skills, unfailing enthusiasm and extremely high standards with an eye for detail
