Are you ready to transform your passion for fitness into a real career? We're looking for someone extraverted, driven and caring to join the F45 Parkdale team full-time...in a few months. No traditional job descriptions here, so please read carefully – this opportunity is about a fresh start and a chance to build skills and grow in a very successful fitness studio with an A+ team and a welcoming and inclusive community.

Here’s what you need to know:

Who we’re looking for:

• Someone with 0–2 years of full-time work experience (plus part-time jobs, summer jobs or internships), ideally in sales or a customer-facing role.

• You’re passionate about fitness, love connecting with people, and dream of a career that doesn’t feel like work.

• You either live in Parkdale/Roncy/High Park or are ready to make it your new home.

• A degree in Kinesiology or a degree or diploma in something health- or sports-related would be an asset, as would experience as an athlete, but please still apply even if this isn't you! One of our co-owners has a business degree and no specific athletic experience other than, well, F45!

• Personal Trainer certification is not required to apply for this role, but note that you would be required to obtain our recommended certifications before your official start date.

Your journey begins with preparation:

This full-time role will have a start date between April 1 and May 15th, but we're planning to make an offer by the end of February at the latest. Between the offer date and your start date, there are a few things we want to see:

• Attend 3-4 F45 classes per week to immerse yourself in the vibe and community. Ideally this would happen at F45 Parkdale but if you don't live here yet (for example, if you're finishing up your degree in another city), we'll pay for your membership at your local F45.

• Complete our recommended Personal Trainer certification and Standard First Aid & CPR-C certification.

Your role:

Once you start full-time between April 1 and May 15th, you'll take on a blend of coaching and sales, with plenty of variety.On the coaching side, you’ll guide our members through upbeat and challenging fitness classes and help newbies fall in love with F45. With a few months of consistent F45 classes under your belt, you'll be performing at the Junior Coach level in about four weeks.

On the sales side, you'll join our amazing Studio Growth team (a team of 3) where we'll train you on how to speak with inbound leads to convert them into newbies willing to try the studio for a month. Most of our new team members make a sale in their first two weeks and grow quickly from there! And nothing beats the satisfaction of helping someone get started, and ten seeing them continue on as a member and achieve their health or fitness goals! It's an incredibly rewarding part of this role.

This role is a 40-hour per week job, but requires evening and weekend availability, both leading classes and doing sales calls to inbound leads. There is lots of flexibility, though, which means it can fit into your lifestyle.

Perks & benefits:

• Competitive full-time salary of $50,000 plus monthly bonus.

• Two weeks of paid vacation annually.

• Partial remote hours.

• Free access to F45 Parkdale classes or work out on your own in the studio.

• Train for HYROX - we're an Official HYROX training club.

• Learn important sales & interpersonal skills that will help you in your career.

• Join a fitness community that supports and inspires one another.
