What are the responsibilities and job description for the Fitness Studio Manager position at The Exercise Coach - Midland Park/Hillsdale?
Do you love…
- Helping real people feel stronger, healthier, and more confident
- Leading a team and watching them grow
- The thrill of hitting sales goals and celebrating wins
- Building a culture of kindness and respect — no egos, no drama
- Having ownership over your own studio's success
The Exercise Coach is expanding! Paramus will be our 3rd location, joining our thriving studios in Midland Park and Hillsdale — and our current Studio Managers have hit their top sales goal 4 months running. Now we're looking for a leader to bring that same energy and success to Paramus.
We're looking for someone who's held a leadership role before — studio manager, assistant manager, shift lead, team lead, or similar. A track record as a top-performing salesperson is essential. A fitness background is ideal, but any boutique background (salon, spa, yoga, wellness, etc.) is welcome. Above all, you have a burning desire to help people and a genuine love for seeing them succeed. You'll know how to build a team, grow membership, and hit sales goals. This is a chance to run your own show, backed by a proven business model.
What You'll Bring:
- Experience leading a team in a small studio, gym, or boutique business (management title not required)
- Genuine passion for helping people
- Ability to hire, train, and motivate others
- Comfort owning studio KPIs: sales, retention, staffing, scheduling
What You'll Do:
- Hire, train, and lead a team of personal trainers and flexologists (small team)
- Run consultations and close new membership sales
- Set and track goals for staff performance and studio revenue
- Build a positive, client-focused studio culture
- Manage day-to-day operations and represent the brand locally
Compensation & Benefits:
- $55,000 base salary plus a very aggressive bonus schedule (current locations are hitting their top tier goals almost every month)
- Paid time off and sick days
- Paid certification and leadership training
- Complimentary membership family discount
Professional Development:
- No personal training certification or degree required
- Paid 'The Exercise Coach' certification
- Paid Assisted Stretch certification
- Paid nutrition certification
