About BEAT81
At BEAT81, we’re on a mission to revolutionize fitness by merging the best of technology, group training, and expert coaching. As a rapidly growing fitness-tech startup, we empower people across Europe—and soon the world—to Sweat Smarter Together. Through innovative HIIT & RIDE workouts, real-time heart rate monitoring, and gamification, we’re transforming the traditional fitness experience into something dynamic, personalized, and impactful.
We’re not just building a global leader in fitness and technology; we’re building a world-class team. At BEAT81, we value passion, potential, and the power of fresh perspectives.
We are looking for a Studio Manager to join our BEAT81 team and play a key role in launching and running our BEAT81 Studio in Berlin!
With our operations expanding, we are seeking a service-oriented and proactive Studio Manager with a passion for fitness to join our team. In this role, you’ll be dedicated to delivering exceptional hospitality, cultivating a thriving front-of-house (FOH) team, ensuring a high-quality studio experience, and managing efficient FOH scheduling.
You will:
- Build and Lead a High-Performing FOH Team: Recruit, onboard, and support FOH staff to uphold BEAT81’s exceptional hospitality standards, ensuring they feel valued, integrated, and clear on tasks and expectations.
- Lead by Example: Maintain a strong, visible presence alongside FOH staff, remaining approachable and supportive to cultivate a thriving team culture (75% of the job is based in our studios; this is not an office job!).
- Foster a Welcoming Customer Experience: Empower FOH staff to create a warm, inclusive atmosphere by offering personalised engagement, anticipating customer needs, and prioritising customer satisfaction in every interaction.
- Ensure a Positive Studio Environment: Maintain an inviting and energising atmosphere, attending to details like cleanliness for an outstanding studio experience.
- Uphold BEAT81 Standards: Consistently implement established company standards (e.g., equipment upkeep, inventory or orders), ensuring a seamless, safe, and hygienic studio environment.
- Manage FOH Scheduling Effectively: Oversee FOH scheduling, ensuring efficient use of FOH hours and flexibility to meet demand while providing stability for the FOH team.
You have:
- Over 3 years of customer service experience, ideally in a leadership role, with a demonstrated ability to remain calm and professional under pressure while delivering exceptional service.
- Highly organised and adaptable, with the ability to manage and prioritise multiple tasks on the go. Quick thinking and flexibility are key, as every day at BEAT81 is different.
- Exceptional attention to detail, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks, from customer interactions to studio standards.
- Effective communication skills and the ability to engage comfortably with a diverse range of personalities, fostering a positive atmosphere for team, coaches, and customers.
- Fluency in English and ideally at least B2-level proficiency in German to connect with a broader customer base.
- A positive, can-do attitude and willingness to support hands-on tasks, from assisting the FOH team to engaging in daily studio operations.
- Comfort working a non-traditional schedule, including weekends, early mornings, middays, and late evenings, to meet the needs of a busy, 7-day-a-week operation.
Nice to have:
- Proven Leader: Experience building and guiding high-performing customer service teams, fostering a culture of excellence.
- Fitness Passion: A genuine enthusiasm for fitness that inspires team members and enhances customer engagement.
- Adaptable Problem Solver: Quick-thinking in fast-paced environments, effectively addressing challenges while maintaining service standards.
Benefits:
- WALK THE TALK: Unlimited BEAT81 workouts for you and one other person of your choice.
- LEARN & GROW: Support for your professional development with a dedicated budget for courses, workshops, and certifications.
- FLEXIBLE WORKING HOURS: Yoga before work and a workout at lunch? No problem. Easily balance personal and professional life with flexible hours.
- YOUR WELL-BEING: Access to Meditopia and 7Minds platforms for yoga, mindfulness, and mental well-being.
- EVENTS: Annual BEAT Connect event in Berlin, monthly meet-ups, team workouts, and seasonal parties to foster team spirit.
- TASTY PERKS: Free drinks, fresh fruit, coffee, granola, and more to energize your day.
- HEALTH INITIATIVES: Quarterly health programs supporting physical and mental well-being.
- BRING YOUR DOG TO WORK: Your furry friend is always welcome in the office.
