Job description

Fit For Life Health and Fitness – Upper Ferntree Gully VIC

We're looking for a passionate and energetic Fit For Life Coach to join our team in the Upper Ferntree Gully Studio, that is located at the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges.

So what does that actually mean? Well, we're pretty up front that we're not on the hunt for someone who is looking for a short term (12-18month) role to help them get experience and mentoring in the industry, only to transition into running their own business.

What we are looking for is someone we can slot into our long term team, and have them grow and develop with us as our brand, our studio, and our online run coaching, PT and Hyrox coaching offerings continue to grow.

What You'll Do:

• Lead engaging and effective group training sessions
• Conduct personalised 1-on-1 and 2-on-1 training sessions
• Implement our unique combination of strength training and HIIT
• Foster a motivating and energetic class environment
• Participate in community events and fitness challenges

What We Offer Our Coaches:

• Exclusive access to Fit For Life onboarding and induction resources
• 8-week fast-track mentoring program with an experienced coach (valued at $2,999)
• Regular team meetings and quarterly team building days
• Opportunities for growth into studio management roles
• A supportive, community-focused work environment

Requirements:

• Certificates 3 & 4 in Fitness (or studying)
• CPR & First Aid Certificate
• Strong knowledge of exercise techniques, physiology, and injury prevention
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Passion for health, fitness, and helping others succeed
• Willing to work as part of the team and be willing to stay with us as we grow as a studio and a brand.

Why Join Us?

At Fit For Life, you're not just a trainer – you're a transformational coach. You'll be part of a team that goes beyond "just a gym" to create lasting change in our members' lives. We offer continuous learning opportunities, a vibrant community atmosphere, and the chance to grow both personally and professionally.
