The Role

 

  1. Work with the Directors and other Managers to take ownership of all operational elements of the surf school. That’s everything to do with the beach, surf equipment and surf instructors. It’s a big job with huge potential to put your stamp on it.
  2. Be the first port of call for every customer who arrives at the beach. You’ve got The Knowledge and if it’s not you, you’ve made sure that someone on your team is briefed and has it covered.
  3. Be the eyes and ears on the ground. You’ll communicate frequently with the Shop Manager to ensure the surf school check in process runs like a well oiled machine between Narosa HQ and the beach
  4. Have eyes glued to the surf forecast. Ability to anticipate surf conditions with tide, wind and swell changes becomes second nature to you. One day out, one week out, two weeks out, you’ll be the one who knows what’s happening in the ocean, and be able to apply it to the lesson schedule and logistics.
  5. Be a leader. You’ll set an example for the guys in your team by having the non-negotiables nailed. Punctual, well presented, reliable and organised are all part of the tone that the beach team sets. You’ll earn the respect of your team by delegating smartly, and grafting where needed.
  6. Have your equipment in check. Your gear looks immaculate at all times, so when customers arrive at the beach they’re blown away. We’re talking everything from overseeing the daily wetsuit cleaning, to organising board repairs and van maintenance.
  7. Be a master of information. You’ll be using our booking software remotely to manage bookings and collate information on lessons. You’ll be expected to deliver daily briefs to your team, and present to the rest of the Narosa team weekly.
  8. Show people an awesome time. You’ll be enthusiastic, energetic and knowledgeable, to ensure that customers leave the beach more in love with surfing than when they arrive.
