Fitness Studio General Manager

BAM Labs (NYC)

If you are interested in BAM Labs Studio Manager opportunities, fill out the application form here.

WHO WE ARE

BAM Labs is a premier boutique fitness studio committed to delivering structured, results-driven strength-training experiences. We believe our job is to build the environment, coaching, and accountability that makes every client’s progress inevitable.

The founding team has already proven the model with three studios operating today in Madrid, Mexico City, and Torreón. This fall, BAM opens its first U.S. location in Flatiron, followed by Houston and Miami within the year.

We are seeking a driven, personable, and strategically minded Fitness Studio General Manager with sales experience to lead membership growth and own the client experience that defines our brand.

WHO YOU ARE

The Fitness Studio General Manager is a pivotal role responsible for driving new membership acquisition, deepening existing member relationships, and elevating every touchpoint of the client journey — from first inquiry to long-term loyalty. This individual serves as the connective tissue between our sales strategy and our in-studio experience, ensuring that revenue growth and member satisfaction reinforce one another rather than compete.

We are looking for a goal-oriented, creative, and ambitious individual who is hungry to help our brand grow. The ideal candidate is not afraid to think outside the box and devise innovative solutions to complex challenges. While you will have clearly defined goals, you will have some ownership over how you achieve them, keeping the brand’s tone and vision — which means you must be resourceful, strategic, and entrepreneurial in your approach. The best outcomes in this role come from understanding that high-quality, retention-driven sales and a premium client experience are the same job, not two different jobs.

Reporting directly to BAM's Co-Founder & CEO, this is a ground-floor opportunity in BAM's U.S. expansion.

Key Responsibilities

Pre-Sales & Launch

Own end-to-end execution of the membership pre-sale campaign, including founding member offers, pricing tiers, and enrollment targets

Drive pre-sale conversions through direct outreach, consultations, and structured follow-up with existing clients, waitlists, and new leads

Track pre-sale performance daily against enrollment and revenue milestones, reporting progress to the founder and Strategy Team

Convert pre-sale momentum into long-term retention by ensuring every founding member is onboarded with clear expectations and an exceptional first experience

Membership Sales & Revenue Growth

Execute a proactive sales strategy, developed in partnership with BAM leadership, to drive new member acquisition across all membership tiers.

Conduct studio tours, consultations, and structured follow-ups with prospective members

Drive consistent daily outreach to leads, hand-raisers, and lapsed clients via phone, email, and text, maintaining clean pipeline hygiene and accurate activity tracking

Partner with the Strategy Team to set and achieve monthly and quarterly revenue targets, reporting regularly on performance, trends, and market insights

Serve as the final point of escalation for client concerns, billing disputes, and incidents, resolving them quickly and with clear documentation

Proactively identify at-risk members using engagement data and run targeted retention and re-engagement campaigns

Drive and grow the client referral program as a core acquisition and retention lever

Marketing, Events & Brand

Lead lead-generation and local marketing plans across social, digital, and grassroots channels in collaboration with the marketing function

Serve as the studio's day-to-day partner to our social media agency — surfacing client results, launch moments, and event coverage, and ensuring content reflects what's actually happening on the floor

Plan and execute member events, milestone acknowledgments, and client engagement initiatives that celebrate individual progress and results

Represent BAM Labs at industry events, partner activations, open houses, and local outreach opportunities

Champion a welcoming, high-energy, committed studio culture that reflects the BAM Labs brand identity

Studio Operations & Standards

Maintain accurate, up-to-date knowledge of all policies, pricing, and membership options so every client receives consistent, correct information

Keep the studio clean, organized, and on brand at all times

Support smart scheduling and capacity utilization decisions that improve both member experience and studio margins

Collaborate cross-functionally with coaches, operations, and marketing to ensure a cohesive member experience

Stay current on industry trends and the local competitive landscape

Requirements
