We apply the same philosophy to our People as we do to our communities, ensuring our team is appreciated and supported. At Places for People, you’re more than just a number - you’re part of our cause.

This is a varied and interesting role. As Duty Manager, you will wear many hats, such as managing, recruiting and training staff, dealing with customer concerns, driving up memberships, preparing reports and attending meetings.

It is essential that you hold a NPLQ qualification and a Pool Plant Operators qualification would be desirable; however, full training will be provided.
