Curriculum Program Manager Jobs in Boston, MA (NOW HIRING)

About Timm Swimm Inc. dba Swimm with Timm:

Our motto is "Swimm smarter, not Harder" and we are a skill-based swim lesson program, not an age-based program, geared towards developing swimmers' proper swimming technique from their start. All of our group lessons have a low student-to-instructor ratio, allowing us to focus on teaching to each student’s individual needs. We are designed to help kids develop the confidence to grow beyond the basics of swimming. We have outstanding employee reviews and unparalleled student retention in our swim programs. With a steady waiting list of students, we can help more individuals swim smarter, not harder, with excellent technique. Swimm with Timm currently operates through Choice Fitness’ Peabody, Methuen, and Salisbury locations.
