Recreation Attendant

WHO WE ARE

The Canadian Forces Morale and Welfare Services (CFMWS) supports the Canadian Armed Forces members and their families wherever they are in the world through the provision of fitness, recreation and leisure activities, family and charitable support, retail as well as personal financial services. We offer our employees the opportunity to work with a purpose every day in an inclusive, healthy, respectful and rewarding work environment.

THE ROLE

The Recreation Attendant plays an important role, providing quality leisure programs, services and facilities to our military members and their families.

Our services are tailored to help families with the challenges they may face due to military life and make the most of everyday activities such as going to the playground or gym. We believe that when members of the Canadian Armed Forces are able to take good care of themselves and their families, they can do better both at home and at work. Whether families need to sign the kids up for swimming lessons, improve their fitness, make friends in a new community, our services are here to help.

As a Recreation Attendant each day will be different as you manage access to the facility, answer customer inquiries and oversee services such as membership sales while maintaining a cash float and providing daily sales reports. You will book facilities and programs, controlling the use of sports and recreation equipment while providing guidance to customers on the operation of the equipment, performing minor maintenance when required and help ensure the cleanliness of the equipment and facility.

We are looking for dynamic, independent and motivated individuals to join our team, helping us ensure recreation is all about fun!
