Program Director – Premier PlayLab

Be part of something from the beginning!

Are you passionate about sports, movement, early childhood development, and creating experiences that positively shape children's lives?

Premier Collective is launching a new brand with an ambitious vision: creating sports, movement and lifestyle experiences for every stage of life.

Built on our brand promise of Play. Move. Connect., Premier Collective brings together programs that inspire people to build confidence, improve performance, develop healthy habits, and create meaningful connections through shared experiences.

Premier PlayLab is the first major launch under the Premier Collective brand. It is a premium movement-based child development program for children ages 18 months to 5 years.

The Opportunity

This is much more than a teaching position. As the Program Director of Premier PlayLab, you will work directly with the founders to launch a new brand, shape the curriculum, deliver classes, build relationships with families, oversee daily operations, and help establish the culture of what we believe will become one of South Florida's premier children's movement programs. As the program grows, this role is expected to evolve into a full-time leadership position.

Key Responsibilities

· Lead the successful launch and daily operation of Premier PlayLab.

· Teach the initial launch schedule of up to 12 classes per week.
