About The Position

The Assistant General Manager & Head Coach leads class quality and supports day-to-day operations at StrongerLife Plano. The role partners with the General Manager to run the center and takes the lead when the General Manager is away. Its responsibilities are evenly weighted across center operations, accurate member records, guiding prospects through tours and membership conversations, and leading group classes for adults 55+ while developing the coaching team.

The role offers the opportunity to help shape classes, member experience and center culture, with a stated growth path from Assistant General Manager & Head Coach to General Manager and potentially multi-unit leadership.
