What are the responsibilities and job description for the Fitness Coach (Exercise Science Focus | Leadership Track) position at Envision Health and Fitness?

Envision Health and Fitness is seeking a full-time Fitness Coach to join our growing team. This is a salaried position for someone who wants more than just coaching sessions—they're looking to build a long-term career in health and fitness.

You'll work alongside our lead coach, training clients at both our Califon and Gladstone locations while helping us deliver an exceptional client experience.

What Makes Envision Different

Unlike traditional gyms, clients don't train exclusively with one coach. Every client follows a personalized program that travels with them, regardless of which coach they're scheduled with.

Success in this role requires consistency, communication, attention to detail, and the ability to execute each client's program while making appropriate modifications based on how they're feeling that day.

Responsibilities

  • Coach one-on-one personal training sessions and small group training classes
  • Deliver a consistent, high-quality coaching experience across both studio locations
  • Execute individualized training programs while applying progressions, regressions, and injury modifications as needed
  • Maintain thorough session notes, exercise progress, and client documentation
  • Hold clients accountable and build strong client relationships
  • Assist with marketing, lead follow-up, and prospective client pre-screenings
  • Support studio operations as needed

Schedule

This is a full-time salaried position based across our Califon and Gladstone locations. The schedule includes a combination of early mornings, evenings, and weekends, with flexibility required as client demand changes. Time between coaching sessions may be spent supporting business operations, maintaining facilities, or commuting between locations.

Growth Opportunity

This position is designed to grow with both you and Envision. As you establish yourself within our coaching team, you'll have opportunities to take on fitness assessments, program design, sales consultations, leadership responsibilities, and location management. As your role grows, so will your compensation through salary increases, performance-based bonuses, long-term revenue-sharing opportunities, ongoing professional development, and the opportunity to help shape the future of Envision.

Qualifications

  • Personal training certification (NASM, ACSM, NSCA, ACE, or equivalent)
  • Strong foundation in exercise science, kinesiology, biomechanics
  • Strong foundation in basic exercise principals and workout routines
  • Familiarity with fitness studios/gyms and comfortable around equipment
  • Excellent communication and organizational skills
  • Comfortable coaching both individuals and groups
  • Detail-oriented with strong note-taking and documentation habits
  • Reliable transportation between our Califon and Gladstone locations
  • Flexible schedule, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends

The Ideal Candidate

We're looking for someone who:

  • Lives the lifestyle and genuinely enjoys training
  • Has a strong presence on the training floor and naturally leads with confidence, professionalism, and energy
  • Is quick on their feet and able to adapt sessions based on client needs
  • Thrives in a team-based coaching environment
