About The Position

We are looking for a Fitness Ambassador who is more than just staff, but the heartbeat of the club. This role is perfect for someone who lights up a room, remembers names, and makes people feel instantly comfortable.

This is an ideal entry-level role to start a career in fitness, leadership, or wellness, requiring great energy and a people-first mindset rather than prior experience. As a Fitness Ambassador, you will connect with members and keep the club buzzing with positive energy, greet members with enthusiasm, be a visible and approachable presence on the fitness floor, assist with check-ins and member needs, promote programs and offerings, and help maintain a clean, safe, and motivating environment. You will also build relationships by knowing names, celebrating wins, and encouraging progress.
