• Communicate clearly and respectfully with students of various English proficiency levels.
• Help maintain cleanliness and order in the pool area.
• Support student engagement and contribute to a positive campus atmosphere.

• Professional & Dependable - You show up on time, follow protocols, and stay calm in emergencies.
• Team-Oriented - You’re supportive of your coworkers and contribute to a collaborative atmosphere.

Requirements
• Must hold a current American Red Cross Lifeguard Certification (or equivalent).

• Strong communication skills and the ability to interact with diverse student populations.
• Must hold a valid U.S. passport or work permit (EF does not provide sponsorship).

• Must pass a criminal background check.
Why you’ll love working here
This is the most fun, high caliber place you’ll ever work. Ask any employee why they love EF (whether they’ve been here 10 minutes or 10 years) and they’ll probably tell you the same thing: it’s the people. When you work at EF, you join a purpose-driven, international and energetic community that thrives on continuous learning, fearless innovation and mutual support.
• Compensation range for this role is $17.00/hr, based on experience.
This role is eligible for overtime for any hours over 40-hours per week with manager approval.
