WINGFOIL INSTRUCTOR (5 TO 10 CLASS HOURS PER WEEK)

Do you want to revitalize your career and do something really fun, for example in addition to your office job? For 2025 we are looking for a Wingfoil and e-foil instructor for the Milligerplas (Zwolle) and the Ketelmeer. Wingfoiling is the fastest growing water sport at the moment. Would you like to work part-time on the water? For example as a 2nd job or next to your work as an entrepreneur? Then read on!

In 2023, we started Wingfoil IJsseldelta, the only
IWO certified Wingfoil School in the region. Our goal is to establish a small-scale, friendly Wingfoil school with quality lessons and the best materials for learning Wingfoiling .

WHAT WILL YOU DO?
We are looking for someone who can teach Wingfoil and efoil lessons on Milligerplas and Ketelmeer. To achieve this you will attend the IWO instructor training in April 2025. This training consists of a part theory and 5 days practice on location in Haarlem. You will then teach the lessons together with another instructor until you can start working independently.

If you can't yet Wingfoiling, that's not a big problem. More important is that you are motivated and available on weekends. 

WHO ARE WE SEARCHING?
We are looking for people who get excited about water sports and want to join us in building a cozy and fun Wingfoil school, where students and staff have a good time. We are thinking
of someone who meets the points below, but you may convince us of your qualities if it does not quite fit:

  • Passion for water sports
  • You enjoy teaching others the Wingfoiling 
  • You are eager to learn and always looking to improve
  • Your priority on weekends is to teach classes
  • Be able to handle materials with care (Pietje precies is
    not necessary, but we work with expensive items that we need to keep neat and don't want to lose)
  • Sociability and the occasional joke are important to you
  • Available an average of at least 2 days per week (Thursday to
    through Sunday) from May 1 to October 1
  • It is a plus if you have experience with another
    water sport
  • You want to learn Wingfoiling (or you already can)
  • You have a driver's license

WHAT DO YOU GET in return?
We would like to enter into a long-term partnership. In the coming years we expect the number of classes you teach to grow, but in the beginning it will be about 5-10 classes per week.

  • Opportunities for contract as self-employed, freelancer in addition to your permanent job (income from other work) or flex contract through employment agency
  • Wingfoil and eFoil course
  • IWO Instructor Training in April 2025
  • Wingfoil materials at purchase prices
  • Use of materials when the opportunity exists
  • Possibility to get boating license I at the expense of Wingfoil IJsseldelta

In October 2024, there is an option to walk with the classes to see if it suits both sides. Are you interested or do you have any questions?
