Job description

Get paid properly for being great at what you do.

Most PTs are stuck choosing between a gym floor wage that never moves, or running their own business: paying rent, chasing leads, selling packages and chasing payments, all before they coach a single rep.

At Fortis, you don't have to choose. We find the clients, run the sales calls, handle the billing and build the programs. You turn up, coach brilliantly and build relationships. And we pay the best trainers like they're the best.

WHAT WE DO FOR YOU

• Clients provided: we run the marketing and sales, so there's no lead generation, no cold selling and no chasing money
• An established group of Fortis clients to start with, plus new leads in your area sent straight to you
• Company van, uniform and equipment provided, with no gym rent or floor fees
• Every session paid as a full 60-minute block, travel time included
• $40/hr to start (including casual loading), plus 12% super
• Your base rate rises $2.50/hr every strong quarter, up to $47.50/hr, and it never goes back down
• Monthly bonuses on top for reliability, client retention, referrals, Google reviews and video testimonials
• A clear path from casual to permanent to Senior Coach as we grow

WHAT YOU COULD ACTUALLY EARN

Just by showing up to every session, getting a few Google reviews from your clients and keeping them training with you, you could earn around $1,000 a month in bonuses on top of your hourly pay.

Keep hitting those targets and your base rate climbs to $47.50/hr. On a full week, that's around $2,000 a month (close to $500 a week) more than you started on.

And it keeps growing. Every extra client who stays training with you adds another $50 a month, for as long as they stay.

THE BONUSES

• Session Reliability: deliver 95% / 97% / 100% of your rostered sessions in a month and earn $100 / $200 / $300
• Client Retention: $50 per client, per month, for every client you train who stays beyond their 12-week minimum term
• Referrals: 5% of the referred client's 12-week contract value
• Reviews: $50 per Google review, $100 per approved video testimonial
• Pay step-up: hit 3 of these 4 in a quarter and your base rate goes up $2.50/hr for good (up to $47.50/hr)

We pay well because we only want the best. If you're reliable, great with people and get results, this is where you'll be rewarded for it.

THE ROLE

Mobile 1:1 and couples personal training across Sydney's Northern Beaches and North Shore. We come to the client. Sessions are 45 minutes and strength-focused. Every client follows our structured whole-body program, but no two clients train the same way. You'll own each client's progress: choosing the right level for them, coaching around injuries, logging every session in our app and keeping in touch with clients between sessions.

WHO YOU'LL BE TRAINING

Mostly busy professionals and parents in their 40s and 50s. They already know what to do. What they've been missing is the time, the convenience and someone who makes sure they show up. When they find a trainer who gets them, they stay for years, and with our retention bonus, so does your income.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Certificate III and Certificate IV in Fitness
• Current First Aid and CPR
• Professional indemnity and public liability insurance
• Full Australian working rights
• Confident coaching strength training and adapting it to each client
• Reliable: you're the one who's always early
• Warm, easy to talk to, and you genuinely enjoy people
• Availability for early mornings
• Hungry to grow, with an interest in retention, sales and, in time, leadership
• Nice to have: ASCA Level 1, a Bachelor of Sport or Exercise Science, or experience with clients aged 35+ and working around injuries.
