Full job description

Be fit. Change lives. Have fun.

We remember you. You were the leader on the playground or the captain in gym class. The one whose team everyone wanted to be on. The one who balanced a take-charge attitude with an ability to make each person feel important and necessary. The one who was the go-to when any sort of problem or question arose.

Today, you’re still a mentor and a master at guidance. You expect the best from those around you, and you work with them to achieve it. You’re passionate about fitness, and your enthusiasm is palpable and pure.

That’s why we want you as a Head Coach at Orangetheory Fitness. We’re looking for people to lead. To listen. To love what they do. And then to share it -- with the coaches in their studio, and with members entrusting the health of their bodies to you.

You’ll lead a team of engaged professionals that have a passion for fitness and helping our members achieve More Life!

As a Head Fitness Coach you can expect to perform the following duties:

  • Leading and motivating members through pre-defined workouts

  • Making sure members are using the correct form and offering corrections if they aren’t

  • Understanding the science behind our workouts specifically, heart-rate focused training programs in general and being aware of what the competition is doing

  • Knowing how to use and demonstrate usage for every piece of equipment utilized in every workout

  • Being a team player

  • All other duties as assigned

Additionally, you’ll need to meet these requirements:

  • Hold and maintain a current fitness certification from an education company approved by Orangetheory Fitness

  • Be AED/CPR certified
