About Purpose Brands

Purpose Brands, LLC is dedicated to making personal health and wellness accessible for people worldwide. The company holds the world’s largest and most trusted portfolio of fitness, health and wellness franchise brands and services: Anytime Fitness, Orangetheory Fitness, Waxing the City, The Bar Method, Healthy Contributions and Provision Security. The Bar Method is a premium boutique fitness concept with a proven but under‑scaled brand with 25 years of heritage and more than 70 studios today, creating a compelling opportunity to re‑accelerate development and reshape the footprint. It also benefits from a recurring, sticky membership model with strong retention and consistent same‑store sales growth over multiple years, supporting a high‑quality revenue base relative to more transactional fitness concepts. The brand gains access to franchise infrastructure, sophisticated marketing engines, and international expansion capabilities not typically available to a brand of its size. Together, these brands generate USD$3.7billion in revenue, operating across 50 countries on all seven continents with a combined 6million+ members.

Role Overview

The Brand President is the senior executive responsible for the strategy, performance, and growth of The Bar Method. This leader oversees franchise operations, education and technique, marketing, customer experience, digital offerings, and business development to strengthen brand performance and franchisee success across the system.

• Lead franchise operations and field support: improve system‑wide performance, studio‑level profitability, and franchisee engagement by overseeing field operations, standards, new studio openings, and ongoing business support.
• Champion education, training, and technique: oversee onboarding, instructor development, certification, and continuing education while ensuring a consistent, high‑quality brand experience across all studios.
• Grow the brand and customer experience: guide brand marketing, member acquisition, retention, and customer experience strategies across studio and digital touchpoints, including online offerings, to deepen loyalty and expand the brand’s reach.
• Own business performance: lead the brand with full accountability for performance, including P&L management, budget planning, forecasting, resource allocation, and data‑driven decision‑making to improve growth and profitability.
• Partner across the enterprise: work closely with cross‑functional leaders in marketing, finance, legal, human resources, technology, compliance, and development to deliver business goals and support franchisee success.

Profile & Qualifications

• Strong executive presence and the ability to lead with both strategic perspective and operational discipline.
• Deep understanding of franchise or multi‑unit business models and customer‑facing service environments.
• Proven financial acumen, including experience managing budgets, forecasts, and P&L performance.
• Track record of scaling businesses, leading change, and improving results through clear priorities and accountability.
