The Club Manager (CM) is the heartbeat of Club Athletic's member experience. Your number one priority is member retention — achieved by ensuring members feel nurtured, valued, and fully integrated into the Club Athletic community.

As Club Manager, you own the day-to-day operations of your studio. You’re responsible for the seamless delivery of every session, the consistent quality of coaching across the floor, and the experience every member has from the moment they walk in. You’ll balance hands-on coaching with operational management, team support, and a strong community presence — both in and out of the studio.

This role is perfect for an experienced, people-focused coach who is ready to take the next step into leadership — someone who thrives on building relationships, maintaining high standards, and creating an environment where members stay for the results and the relationships.

You will report directly to the Dual General Manager.
