Working at The Wave
Ever wondered what it’s like to work at The Wave? Hear from our Wavemakers as they talk you through our various roles and departments.
Lifeguard qualifications
We understand a barrier to achieving the required lifeguarding qualifications can often be the cost and the location of the course providers. The Wave wants to be able to make this easier for aspiring lifeguards and are proud to offer these courses in house.
By the end of the 6-day course, you will have achieved your RLSS Beach Lifeguard qualification preparing you to join our team as a Wavemaker.
Surf Coach qualifications
Would you like to become a beach lifeguard or surf coach but aren’t sure where to start? Since 2021 we have been providing Wavemakers the opportunity to become qualified Surf Coaches and Lifeguards by running in-house training courses.
