Outdoor Sports Facility Caretaker
So, you’re actively looking for a new job in sports. How about an exciting role working on a military estate in support of our Army customers? You’ll get to do what you love and be paid for it. Join a great team at Aspire Defence Services…
When you love what you do, you’ll never have to work a day in your life. And you love being active and spending your time outdoors. So, providing day to day supervision of Outdoor Sports Facilities, as required for this role, should be a breeze.
You’ll be responsible for preparing activity areas and ensuring that equipment is stored and made secure when not in use. And when you notice any equipment or sporting premises needs maintenance, it’s good practice to report it.
As the Outdoor Sports Facilities Assistant, you should have excellent communication skills needed to deliver the highest standards of Customer Service onto our valued customers.
But you won’t be working alone, you’ll belong within a team, which means you need to be able to work well with others, especially someone like the ground’s contractor, for example, to ensure the pitches are well maintained and ready for use. And you should be committed to attend one NPLQ training session per month to keep your qualification valid.
But first, meet the team…
With a 35-year contract, making soldiers’ lives better is at the heart of everything we do at Aspire Defence Services.
Seriously, picture a heart (the real one) and imagine how hard it works to keep the body running, making sure every part gets exactly what it needs to thrive. That’s our mission; to deliver a modern, fully serviced, flexible working environment for soldiers.
And just as the heart needs certain parts to keep the body alive, we need the dedication and commitment of our people to support our customers. We deliver a broad range of services for one-third of the British Army living and working on our patch, and we're proud of the work we do.
We’re all about nurturing great teams, and our award-winning safety and wellbeing initiatives are built on keeping an eye out for one another and having a good work-life balance.
In addition to being part of our team, you’ll also get…
- Continued training and development
- Free use of Aldershot Garrison Sports Centre facilities
- Opportunities to develop in other areas of the Sports Centre
- 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays, as well as the option to buy and sell holiday
