  • 2+ years of management experience (boutique fitness, hospitality, or service-based business preferred)

  • Proven success in membership sales or revenue-driven roles

  • Experience with pre-sale or new studio openings strongly preferred

  • Willingness to work evenings, weekends, and extended hours during pre-opening phase

  • CPR/AED certification required (or willingness to obtain)

Desired Traits

  • Competitive and performance-driven

  • Strong communicator with leadership presence

  • High energy and hands-on mindset

  • Comfortable taking ownership of results
