Job description

Personal Trainer | Contractor → Full-Time Opportunity | North Shore

Want to coach in a private 1:1 studio where the clients are provided, there’s no gym rent or sales targets, and there’s a genuine pathway to building a full-time role?

Plexus Personal Training is growing across Sydney’s North Shore, and we’re looking for great trainers to join our team across St Ives and Pymble.

We operate differently from a traditional commercial gym.

Every session is private 1:1. We provide the studio, the clients and the systems. You focus on coaching, building relationships and getting great results.

The opportunities

We have several contractor opportunities available and will work with the right applicants to find the role and location that best suits their availability.

Our highest-priority role is St Ives weekday mornings.

We’re looking for someone available from approximately 6:00am Monday–Friday who wants to progressively build their client book as our new St Ives studio grows.

This would begin as a contractor position rather than an immediate full-time role. However, our goal is to build the right person towards a substantial weekly schedule and potentially transition them into a full-time employee role as demand grows.

For someone looking for more than just a few PT sessions each week, this is the biggest opportunity we currently have.

We also have contractor opportunities at Pymble, particularly across selected weekday afternoons/evenings and weekends.

You don't necessarily need to fit every available time. If you're a great trainer with availability across some of these periods, we'd still like to hear from you.

How Plexus works
  • Exclusively private 1:1 personal training

  • We provide the clients — no lead generation or cold selling

  • No gym rent

  • No competing with other trainers for clients

  • Paid per completed session, plus super

  • Approximately $40–$55 per hour depending on experience and client load

  • Established North Shore business operating since 2019

  • Studios in Pymble, Roseville Chase and St Ives

  • Opportunity to build from contractor hours into a larger role as we grow

Our sessions are 45 minutes and primarily strength-training focused.

You’ll take ownership of your clients' training and results, so we expect thoughtful, individualised programming rather than putting everyone through the same workout.

Who you'll be training

Our clients are predominantly busy professionals aged 40–60.

They value consistency, trust and having a trainer who genuinely understands them.

Technical knowledge matters, but we've found that the best Plexus trainers are also warm, calm and emotionally intelligent.

People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.

You'll be a great fit if you:
  • Build rapport naturally and genuinely enjoy working with people

  • Are warm, calm and easy to talk to

  • Can read people and adapt your coaching to the individual

  • Communicate clearly without ego or unnecessary jargon

  • Are reliable and take ownership of your clients

  • Can confidently coach strength training

  • Hold a Certificate IV in Fitness or higher

  • Have permanent Australian working rights

  • Want the opportunity to build something longer-term rather than simply picking up the occasional session

Previous experience is valuable, but personality, reliability and your ability to connect with clients matter enormously to us.
