• Collaborate with studio leadership on growth initiatives, partnerships, and outreach

• Track KPIs and analyze performance metrics to inform decisions and improve operations

• Manage studio readiness, including equipment maintenance and operational needs

• Foster a positive, team-first culture rooted in accountability, professionalism, and passion

What You’ll Need to Succeed

• One or more of the following: degree in Exercise Science or related field, accredited personal training or group fitness certification, or a 500-hour Pilates certification

• At least 5 years of fitness industry experience, with 2+ years in a leadership or management role
