About The Position

This is a hands-on, in-studio leadership role within a franchise-owned BODYBAR Pilates studio. The Fitness Manager serves as the operational and cultural leader for the fitness experience, working in close partnership with the Franchise Owner and Studio Manager to deliver brand excellence, drive performance, and prepare for future studio expansion. This role is ideal for an experienced fitness leader who wants ownership-level impact without owning the franchise, and who is motivated to grow into multi-unit leadership as additional franchise locations open. We are seeking a highly reliable, motivated, self-starting Fitness Manager to lead the fitness function within a franchise-owned, in-studio environment. This role requires a leader who is deeply engaged on the studio floor—teaching, coaching, mentoring, and connecting with members—while ensuring all programming and operations align with BODYBAR brand standards. As the franchise grows, this position offers the opportunity to take on expanded oversight across multiple locations, helping to train leaders, standardize systems, and support new studio openings.
