We are looking for a Part Time Fitness Instructor working at our residences in Kensington or Fulham.

At Riverstone, we are creating exceptionally designed developments exclusively for people over 65. It’s not just about a place to live, but a new way of living that enables them to live the life they want to live. We want this to be a lifestyle full of choice, with wellbeing at its heart, that enables people to be active, social, and continue learning regardless of age. Our purpose-built Spas and Exercise Clubs feature exercise studios, the latest interactive and intuitive EGYM equipment, swimming pools, vitality pools, saunas, and steam rooms—designed to help our residents, all over 65, live the life they want.

What is a Riverstone Residence? Think of a blend of outstanding apartments, with the services of a private members' club and a luxury hotel, all designed for the over 65s. Beautiful homes, exceptional services, amenities, and a strong sense of community and belonging.

The Fitness Instructor will be responsible for delivering Riverstone’s core fitness offerings, supporting residents to maintain or improve their physical strength, mobility, and confidence in a safe, welcoming environment.

This is for you if…

• You want to leverage your experience and passion for fitness and wellbeing to create a new lifestyle choice for the over-65s in central London, within a resilient sector unaffected by the pandemic.
• You have a genuine interest in others and enjoy building long-term relationships. You are a great listener, show empathy, and can anticipate residents’ needs.
• You are confident supporting people at various levels of independence and health, from highly active residents to those living with frailty.
• You understand this role involves more than just delivering workouts; it’s about meeting residents where they are in their fitness journey and facilitating meaningful improvements.
• You hold a recognised fitness qualification (minimum Level 3 Personal Trainer).
• You have experience working with older adults and a passion for later-life wellbeing.

Key responsibilities of the Fitness Instructor

• Deliver resident gym inductions, including functional mobility assessments and exercise programs tailored to individual needs.
• Onboard residents to EGYM equipment and conduct routine safety checks.
• Deliver a variety of core group classes weekly, including Functional Strength and Fall Proof (based on the OTAGO falls prevention program).
• Conduct annual fitness reviews, assess progress, and update individual fitness plans.
• Support the coordination of external instructors’ bookings.
• Collaborate with Wellbeing Ambassadors and the wider team to provide holistic support to residents.

A rewarding role

• Starting salary of up to £20,840 pro-rated for 20 hours per week, based on experience, plus performance bonus.
• Opportunities for private personal training sessions outside core hours, with income retained by you.
• 20 hours per week, Monday to Friday at Kensington or Fulham residences.
• Benefits include:
• Enhanced pension
• Free main meals on duty from our on-site restaurant
• 25% discount in our restaurants (conditions apply)
• Annual health screening
• Access to discounts and cashback from retailers on everyday and special items.
