Job description

Become a Coach at
Wilcox Wellness & Fitness

Not just a job. A calling. A career. A community.

this is a full time position in Bangor, ME

At WILCOX, our coaches aren’t trainers. They’re leaders, mentors, and culture-builders. We don’t just train bodies -we coach the whole person: physical, mental, and emotional. Every session is about helping clients grow in strength, resilience, and confidence that carries into every part of their lives. When you coach at WILCOX, you step into the WILCOX Coaching Framework - our proven system for delivering transformational results and developing coaches into world-class professionals. This isn’t just a shift. It’s a career path.

5 REASONS TO BE A PERSONAL TRAINER AT WILCOX

• Passion with Purpose: Do what you love - and know it matters. As a coach, your focus is impact: leading clients, not paperwork or marketing.
• Team Over Everything: We grow together. We celebrate wins, push each other, and support one another. Lone wolves don’t last here.
• A Thriving Community: Our clients are incredible. Being surrounded by people who want to grow makes every day exciting.
• Relentless Growth: Feedback and development are non-negotiable. From weekly TTT (“Trainers Training Trainers”) to huddles to reflective writing, you’ll be sharpened daily.
• Business Infrastructure Built for You: No hustling for clients. No sales grind. No admin overload. We handle all of that - so you can do what you do best: coach.

WHAT WE DO

We help people live their very best lives through habits that last a lifetime. We don’t just build fitness. We build identity, resilience, and confidence. Our ripple effect extends into families, workplaces, and the greater community.

When you join WILCOX, you don’t just get a job. You join a movement.

THIS ROLE IS FOR YOU IF...

• You believe coaching is one of the most important jobs in the world.
• You love helping people grow through whole-human coaching.
• You’re excited to build a real career in fitness and leadership.

• You’re more focused on your personal gains than client impact.
