If you aspire to build a meaningful, long‑term career as a Personal Trainer, this entry‑level role offers the ideal launchpad.

About the Role

The Personal Trainer Assistant is the starting position in our coaching pathway. You will learn our training methodology, develop coaching skills, and support senior trainers while working closely with diverse clients.
With strong performance, growth, and commitment, this role leads to promotion to Personal Trainer, where you will independently design and deliver personalised programs.

Key Responsibilities

1. Assist in Designing Personalised Training Programs

Work with senior trainers to create tailored training plans that address clients’ goals, postural issues, muscular imbalances, and age‑specific needs.

2. Support Coaching Sessions

Provide guidance to clients alongside senior coaches—reinforcing correct form, ensuring safety, and helping clients understand the purpose behind each movement.

3. Learn and Apply Preventive Health Principles

Develop your understanding of exercise as preventive healthcare, functional movement, muscle health, and strength training for longevity.

4. Monitor and Document Client Progress

Assist in tracking improvements in strength, mobility, and health indicators while learning how to evaluate training effectiveness.

5. Maintain Professional Standards

Ensure hygiene, organisation, and readiness of training areas to support a high‑quality client experience.

6. Prioritise Safety and Readiness

Support the team in safety protocols and respond with basic first aid if required.

7. Manage Equipment and Facility Care

Keep equipment clean, functional, and report servicing needs promptly.

8. Support Daily Operations

Assist with scheduling, administrative duties, and client communication to ensure smooth operations across the gym floor.

9. Vendor Coordination (Entry‑Level Scope)

Occasionally liaise with vendors under guidance for equipment servicing and facility upkeep.

Skills & Attributes We Value

• Basic understanding of anatomy, exercise science, or biomechanics (you will be trained to deepen these skills).

• Interest in preventive health, rehabilitation, and evidence‑based strength training.

• Strong communication skills and the ability to build rapport.

• Professional, punctual, reliable, and eager to learn.

• Empathetic and patient, especially when working with beginners, seniors, or clients with chronic conditions.

• Team‑oriented, proactive, and a natural problem‑solver.

• Relevant qualifications (Diploma in Sports Science or ACE/NSCA/NASM certifications) are an advantage but not mandatory for highly motivated learners.

Career Progression

This role is designed to prepare you for promotion to Personal Trainer, where you will:

• Independently design and deliver personalised programs

• Lead client consultations and assessments

• Manage a portfolio of clients

• Continue developing through advanced education and mentorship

We are committed to developing capable, confident professionals who can drive Singapore’s preventive health movement forward.
