OYSTER BAY, NY — It's time to start thinking about the summer, especially for people seeking seasonal work.

The Town of Oyster Bay has lifeguard opportunities at its beaches with a starting salary of up to $18 per hour.

“From having the opportunity to work at one of our beautiful Town beaches and building confidence, self-esteem, and leadership skills, to making new friends and helping others, working as a lifeguard is one of the best summer jobs around,” Supervisor Joseph Saladino said.

Residents aged 16 and over with a Nassau County Grade II certification can seek employment at one of the Town’s "calm water" beaches on the north shore, including Theodore Roosevelt Beach in Oyster Bay, Centre Island Beach in Bayville, Tappen Beach in Glenwood Landing, and Ransom and Stehli Beaches in Bayville.

Residents 17 and older with a Nassau County Grade III certification can seek employment at TOBAY Beach, as an ocean lifeguard.

Applicants must also possess a current CPR/AED for the Professional Rescuer certification. Lifeguards also have many future opportunities for advancement.
