Pool Operations Lead
Lead ROVA’s premium aquatic wellbeing space in Central London, inspiring a multidisciplinary team and creating safe, restorative experiences that help people live, work and recover better.
Two brands. One team. ROVA Health is what happens when two established names in health and wellbeing stop running in parallel and start moving together. Built on over a century of Westfield Health Group heritage and driven by the belief that the way people live, work, and recover has fundamentally changed — we exist to do something about it. This is a platform with purpose, built by people who care about getting it right. If you're joining us, you're not just starting a new job. You're helping navigate what comes next.
POOL OPERATIONS LEAD
Navigate the unknown as a ROVA Experience Specialist
You’ll lead the pool, a premium aquatic wellbeing space inside a high-profile global company’s Central London campus. That means end-to-end ownership of technical coaching, physical conditioning and restorative sessions such as Floating Meditation, Sound Healing and pop-up Flow Yoga, delivered by a multidisciplinary team you manage directly.
It’s a hospitality-led role as much as an operational one. You’ll set the standard for safety, cleanliness and service, build the calendar of experiences, and make sure every employee who steps into the water feels seen, heard and valued, while staying closely connected to teams across our wider London Campus and EMEA locations.
