We are looking for Lifeguards to join our team at URBNSURF Sydney in Olympic Park.

You’ll also work closely with the Surf Guides and Duty Manager teams.
What are we looking for:

• URBNSURF Sydney operates anywhere from 6am to midnight depending on the season, so flexible availability is a big plus!
