Where You’ll Make an Impact: This role is part product detective, part project coordinator, part storyteller, and part fitness industry trend watcher. You’ll support the Senior Product Manager in bringing new product ideas to life, from early research and competitive reviews to product briefs, launch support, and sales training.
