Pool Technician

About Us

That Pool Shop is a fast growing Adelaide-based pool servicing business focused on providing high-quality, reliable service and building long-term relationships with our customers.

We’re a hands-on business, not a large corporate or franchise. We value people who are reliable, practical, take ownership of their work and want to build something long term.

We’re looking for a Pool Technician who wants more than just a job. Someone who is looking for stable employment, enjoys practical work and is keen to learn and develop their skills with us.

• Testing and balancing pool water chemistry
• Identifying and troubleshooting basic pool and equipment issues
• Performing basic equipment maintenance and installations as you develop
• Recording accurate job notes and service details
• Communicating professionally with customers
