Job description

About Us

We’re HFE, an award-winning training provider specialising in qualifications for the active leisure sector.

About Us

We’re HFE, an award-winning training provider specialising in qualifications for the active leisure sector.

We deliver a wide range of health, fitness and wellbeing programmes across the UK, with our Pilates teacher training programmes recognised for setting a particularly high standard in both matwork and reformer Pilates education.

Quality is at the heart of everything we do. We’re committed to delivering outstanding learning experiences, maintaining high professional standards and continually looking for ways to do things better.

That’s why we’re looking for people who share the same mindset. If you’re passionate about Pilates, take pride in your teaching and are committed to delivering excellence, we want to hear from you.

Our Vision

We believe in people and their potential. Our mission is to create a learning environment where our Pilates students can deepen their knowledge, develop their skills, and become the best Pilates teachers that they can be.

We live and breathe the philosophy that ‘excellence isn’t an outcome – it’s a habit’. That’s why we’re constantly striving to improve our Pilates teacher training programmes, pushing beyond “the status quo” to deliver a truly world-class training and assessment experience for our students.

While our Pilates programmes lead to fully regulated and internationally recognised qualifications, our focus is on helping each and every one of our students to grow personally and professionally. The goal of our programmes isn’t just to get the qualification, it’s to become more in the process.

The Role

Our mat and reformer Pilates tutors and assessors are among the best in the industry. Joining the team means sharing their commitment to exceptional teaching, technical accuracy and high standards.

You’ll deliver our mat and reformer Pilates courses in line with our timetables and programme structure, while bringing your own expertise and personality to create engaging, interactive learning experiences. We’re looking for tutors who are organised, reliable and technically strong, but above all, passionate about helping students develop their knowledge, confidence and teaching skills.

You’ll be supported by our experienced senior tutor team, with hands‑on guidance to help you deliver both theory and practical sessions effectively and get the very best from your students.

This is an opportunity for professional Pilates teachers looking to make a meaningful, long-term contribution. If you’re only looking for occasional work, this probably isn’t the role for you.

Hours and Pay

A typical reformer training course will be delivered over 4 days (two weekends) and the course will run between 12:00-20:00, although it is important to stress that some venues the hours are slightly later due to studio access. A full day of training is 8 hours, which is inclusive of two short comfort breaks (15 mins), and a slightly longer meal break (30 mins).

Mat Pilates course are usually delivered between 09:00-17:00, over 6 days (three weekends).

The current rate of pay for our reformer teacher training programmes is £200.00 per day. We also have a number of our tutors who get involved with other training programmes and/or development projects and the rates of pay according to these vary. Suffice to say there is plenty of opportunity for skilled and competent tutors to secure a regular pattern of interesting and rewarding work.

Qualifications

• Level 3 Diploma in Mat Pilates (or equivalent)
• A recognised reformer Pilates teacher certificate
• A relevant teaching qualification (e.g. Award/Certificate/Diploma in Education and Training, PTLLS, DTLLS, CTLLS, Cert Ed, PGCE)*
• A relevant vocational assessing qualification (e.g. D32/33, A1/A2, CAVA, AVRA)*
• We may consider exceptional applicants who are working towards these qualifications as long as there is a firm commitment to achieve these within 12 months.

Your Skills & Experience

• Have a minimum of two years’ experience in the health and fitness industry, ideally with a focus on planning and delivering Reformer Pilates classes.
• Be a passionate and dynamic fitness professional, driven by a desire to help others unlock their potential and advance their careers.
• Be customer‑focused and committed to going above and beyond to deliver an exceptional learning experience.
• Have excellent communication skills, including the ability to demonstrate empathy, sensitivity, and strong interpersonal awareness.
