Aquatics Program Director for the Cheyenne YMCA

The YMCA of Northern Colorado is seeking a Program Director for Aquatics at the Cheyenne YMCA. We seek an organized problem-solver and leader who cares deeply about water safety, staff management, programming and customer service.

Our ideal candidate can help develop and lead a team through inspiration, coaching and clearly communicated expectations. They have a strong work ethic and healthy work-life balance. Our Aquatics Program Director will be committed to all aspects of the position: working within an annual budget; helping to hire, train and supervise a strong Lifeguard and Swim Instructor staff team; and assist in creating and implementing new programs including a competitive swim team. You'll also need to top notch interpersonal skills to provide excellent customer service to members and participants.

As a leader at the branch you will understand that the Y is more than just a gym or a pool. It's a community. And you are not simply helping kids learn to blow bubbles or help adults perfect their stroke technique. You are helping them find a support system, heal, improve their wellbeing, nurture water confidence and develop life-saving skills. You know some members are training for their 10th triathlon while others are stepping into the water for the first time. Either way, you can't wait to welcome them to the Y and show them how we can help.

Salary Range: $40,000-$50,000/yr. This position is year-round, full-time exempt.
