British Swim School is growing our adaptive swim program, and we're looking for compassionate, experienced individuals who are passionate about helping swimmers of all abilities become safer and more confident in the water.

Our adaptive program serves swimmers with autism, developmental disabilities, sensory processing differences, and other unique learning needs.

Adapt instruction to meet sensory, communication, behavioral, and developmental needs
Use positive reinforcement, visual supports, and individualized teaching strategies
Help swimmers develop water confidence, independence, and essential survival skills
Collaborate with adaptive program leadership to establish goals and track progress
Build positive, supportive relationships with swimmers and their families

What We're Looking For

Autism-focused or other disability-support programs

Additional qualifications:

Strong understanding of sensory, communication, and behavioral support strategies
Confidence and comfort working in the water
Patience, adaptability, and excellent communication skills
Dependability and consistent availability

Adaptive aquatics experience is strongly preferred, but we will consider candidates with significant disability-support experience who are willing to learn our swim instruction methodology.
