Job description

At The Perfect Workout, we’re looking for someone who wants more than “just a job”.

We’re looking for people who want to grow, because growth starts with the choice to keep learning and improving.

If you're simply looking for a gym job, more hours, or a place to coast, this won’t be a fit.

If you want to stay comfortable or avoid challenges, you may not enjoy it here.

But if you want to build a meaningful career with steady schedules and opportunities to grow—and become the kind of coach who truly transforms lives, including your own—keep reading.

What Makes Us Different

Other companies highlight perks.

We offer something deeper and more lasting: growth, truth, and mastery.

We support you from the ground up, pay for your certification, and encourage you to rise. Not everyone chooses that path, but those who do become part of a team known for excellence, candor, and genuine care.

Who Thrives Here

You’re right for us if you:

• Connect easily and authentically with people
• Value feedback as a way to keep improving
• Show up with heart, effort, and consistency
• Enjoy being coached and pushed to grow
• Take ownership and pride in your work
• Motivated by sales goals while keeping relationships at the center

If that excites you… good.

If it challenges you… even better.

Those are usually our best trainers.

What You’ll Do

We’ll train you — no experience required — to:

• Deliver precise, evidence-based strength training
• Coach members clearly and confidently
• Build strong relationships that lead to retention and referrals
• Lead Introductory Workouts that inspire commitment
• Maintain excellent attendance and help members achieve real results
• Improve continuously — Kaizen is part of our DNA

What We Provide

• Paid, in-house Personal Trainer certification
• Career growth opportunities and recognition for performance
• $16.90 - $27.00 per hour
• Part-time opportunities
• Supplemental medical benefits (for qualified employees)
• 401(k) after one year
• Paid time off opportunities
• A supportive team environment — no lone wolves here
• Free personal training sessions

What This Job Really Is

For the right person — someone hungry, honest, curious, and ready to grow — it may be the most meaningful job you’ve ever had.
