Are you energetic, people-focused, and motivated by the opportunity to earn more when you sell?

HOTWORX Bethesda is looking for a Sales Associate who is excited about fitness, wellness, and helping people discover a workout experience that is truly different. This is not a typical gym job. HOTWORX combines 24/7 access, infrared sauna workouts, virtual instruction, low-impact training, and a highly efficient workout experience that our members love.

We are looking for someone who wants to grow with us. This position starts as a sales role, with the opportunity to advance into Senior Sales, then Assistant Manager and eventually Studio Manager based on performance, leadership, consistency, and results.

Why This Role Is Exciting

This is a great opportunity for you if you enjoy:

  • Talking to people and building relationships
  • Selling something you genuinely believe in
  • Helping prospects overcome hesitation and take action
  • Being part of a unique fitness/wellness brand you can fully get behind
  • Earning bonuses and commissions based on performance

At HOTWORX Bethesda, your effort directly impacts your earnings. In addition to hourly pay, this role includes the opportunity to earn commissions and bonuses for membership and retail sales and for meeting or exceeding other performance goals.

  • Helping keep the studio clean, organized, and welcoming
  • Participating in promotions, challenges, events, and local outreach
  • Tracking sales activity and progress toward goals

Who We’re Looking For

You do not need years of fitness sales experience. We are willing to train you if you have the right attitude.

You may be a great fit if you are:

  • Friendly, positive, and confident talking to people
  • Comfortable with sales, or excited to learn/expand on sales expertise
  • Motivated by goals, bonuses, and commissions
  • Reliable and consistent
  • Organized enough to follow up with leads and complete daily tasks & priorities
  • Coachable and open to feedback

  • Excited about fitness, wellness, or healthy living
  • Able to create energy and excitement in the studio
  • Willing to take ownership of results and goal attainment
