We are a fast-growing, high-energy center in Wilmington, NC, looking for a driven, high-ownership Manager to help lead our team, grow our membership, and deliver an exceptional experience for kids and families.

About the Role

This is a hands-on leadership role at the center of our operation. You’ll take ownership of sales performance, support daily operations, and help lead the team to a high standard.

This is not an “order-taker” role. This is for someone who:

Stay on top of key priorities so nothing falls through the cracks

Build strong relationships with members and families

Support scheduling, organization, and daily execution

Leadership & Team Development

Lead by example and help set the tone for the team

Coach and support team members to improve performance

Address issues directly and proactively

Communicate clearly and consistently with both team and ownership

Coaching (as needed)

Coach classes and support programming when needed

Deliver structured, high-energy classes

Build strong relationships with families and communicate program value

What We’re Looking For

Proven sales ability (comfortable closing and following up)

Strong ownership mentality — you take responsibility for outcomes

Ability to stay organized and execute consistently

Clear, professional communication

Positive, team-first attitude

Comfort working in a fast-paced, high-expectation environment

Core Competencies

High standards & accountability

Ownership mindset (doesn’t wait to be told what to do)

Strong follow-through

Professional and coachable

Organized, adaptable, and team-oriented

Growth mindset with leadership potential

Schedule & Compensation

Schedule includes a mix of weekdays/evenings/weekends

Base salary (based on experience) + bonus + commission opportunities

Ongoing training and development

Why Join KidStrong Wilmington?

Be part of a fast-growing, mission-driven company

Work in a high-energy, team-focused environment

Make a real impact on kids and families

Opportunity to grow into higher-level leadership roles
