Life's too short not to lead someplace awesome.

Are you a natural leader who lights up around kids, takes pride in running a tight ship, and wants ownership over building something special? The Little Gym is looking for a Gym Director to be the heart, engine, and face of our location. This is the top in-gym leadership role — you'll set the tone for your team, the experience for our families, and the growth of the business.

About The Little Gym

With more than 300 locations across the globe, The Little Gym is the world's premier enrichment and physical development center for kids 4 months through 12 years. For over four decades, we've helped millions of kids experience the thrill of achievement, develop new skills, and find new confidence through gymnastics-based programs. Parent/Child, Pre-K, and Grade School classes are taught in a clean, fun, safe, and nurturing environment where children develop at their own pace. We're a growing, locally-owned group of Atlanta-area locations — which means real opportunity to grow with us.

The Role

The Gym Director is a full-time, career-level position responsible for the overall success of the location — its people, its programs, its members, and its growth. You'll report directly to ownership and run the day-to-day with a high degree of autonomy. The best person for this job loves being on the floor teaching great classes and loves the leadership work of building a team, hitting goals, and creating an experience families rave about.
