Full job description
Job Title: Deck Supervisor
Reports to: Assistant Manager - Aquatics
FLSA Status: Part time, Non-Exempt
Summary: We’re looking for a confident, organized, and coaching-minded leader to join our team as a Deck Supervisor. This is a shift leadership role at its core - you’ll oversee the flow of lessons, lead and develop your deck team, and make sure every student and family has a golden experience every single visit. If you're someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment, takes ownership seriously, communicates with clarity, and gets energy from helping others grow, this role is built for you.
Duties and Responsibilities:
Own the shift from start to finish - prepare the deck, lead pre-shift and post-shift meetings, and keep lessons running on time and on brand.
Coach Swim Instructors, Deck Assistants, and Lifeguards through direct observation and honest, specific feedback that drives real improvement.
Interact with parents and guardians at the end of every lesson to discuss student progress and act as a GSS ambassador who ensures member satisfaction.
Complete daily Deck Supervisor logs and monitor student attendance on assigned shifts.
Conduct periodic evaluations of Swim Instructors and provide actionable feedback.
Coordinate facility cleanliness tasks and ensure the pool environment meets our standards throughout the shift.
Help arrange coverage for absent team members to keep shifts running smoothly.
Step in as a substitute Swim Instructor or Lifeguard when needed.
Identify areas for improvement and help implement corrective action through training.
What We’re Looking For:
Current Lifeguard, CPR, First Aid, and AED certifications required and must remain active.
Background in youth sports coaching, camp leadership, or teaching is a plus.
A natural coach who gives feedback early, often, and with intention.
Calm under pressure and able to make decisions quickly when it matters.
Must be available for evening and weekend shifts.
While performing this job, the employee is regularly exposed to heat, humidity, and chlorine. Noise level is usually moderate.
What Success Looks Like:
Every shift runs smoothly because preparation happened before the first student arrived.
Your deck team feels supported, coached, and clear on expectations before every lesson.
Families trust us because the experience is consistent and communication is proactive.
Students are progressing because instructors are delivering quality lessons under your guidance.
Our Culture: At Goldfish Swim School, we believe every child deserves to be safe in and around water. Our team is passionate, people-first, and committed to a golden experience every day. As a Deck Supervisor, you’re the leader who makes that standard real on the pool deck - every lesson, every shift, every family.
Goldfish Swim School was founded in 2005 by husband and wife team Chris and Jenny McCuiston. Chris and Jenny took a concept that they formulated with nearly two years of research, and cultivated a business that provides results in the learn-to-swim environment that you simply can’t find anywhere else. Their proprietary curriculum and systems were developed after traveling the country in search of the “best practices” to teach babies and young children how to swim.
The first school, in Birmingham, Michigan, opened in 2006, and quickly saw success. Opening its doors with over 500 students at inception, Goldfish currently teaches more than 70,000 students per month across the franchise system.
At the beginning of 2008, it made sense to begin the franchising process. As of early 2017, we are currently in the process of expanding franchise opportunities throughout the country and internationally, with over 80 schools open or in development in more than 23 states and Canada.
