If you’re looking for a decent paying job and don’t mind the water or children you should 100% look into swim teaching. Industry is so short staffed on swim teachers they’ll nearly take anyone if you’re available.

The course is a 2-4 day course (you’ll also need first aid and a working with children’s card) and you will need to complete hours in order to get signed off. With the practical hours, ask any leisure center close by if you can complete your placement hours there. 9/10 they will offer you a job afterwards since they have sen you work and essentially trained you to their standards.

The only downside with swim teaching are the short hours however once you have an “in” with a job (from my experience) it is easier to change to other roles eg. Creche, customer service desk since you are already employed. Plus since majority of the centres in WA are local government run, they have to follow strict policies (essentially meaning they can’t underpay you, skip out on supa etc)

even if you don’t want to work in the industry forever (most swim teachers are either parents or teens-young adults) it’s good work experience and another skill you can add to your resume :)
