The Pool & Hot Tub Alliance, the trade association of the swimming pool, spa, and hot tub industries, has launched a new jobseeker’s website as well as a dedicated job board for PHTA members.
The association will be able to achieve its workforce development goals. The consumer website is the cornerstone of this program. It serves as a hub for the program and gives jobseekers critical information on the industry including in-demand roles, career paths, earning potential, success stories and more. Members of PHTA can create their own employer profiles, and post free jobs on the only industry specific job board.
PHTA’s leadership revealed the plans for the Pool Professionals Pipeline program at the board meeting in November last year. PHTA, along with its steering committee of experienced industry experts developed the program in order to increase jobseeker’s awareness of the aquatics sector and to meet the demand for new talent.
The program will also include a jobseeker’s website and job board. It will also be supported by social media on Facebook and LinkedIn as well as public relations and advertising campaigns. Videos, new resources and other assets are being developed continuously. PHTA members will also receive additional resources to help them increase their visibility with today’s active job seekers.
Sabeena Hickey, PHTA’s president and CEO said, “The pool, hot tub, and spa industry has a lot of potential for growth. However, like many other industries, our growth is limited by a lack of skilled workers and the younger generation of workers who are entering such trades as ours.” The importance of this program is not to be underestimated. We heard our members’ complaints loudly and are proud to unveil this next phase in our plan to attract jobseekers into our industry.
