About the position
The Regional Personal Training Manager (RPTM) directly oversees the personal training operations, financial metrics, and talent development across a dedicated district of up to 5 clubs. In this role, you bypass club-level PT middle management to work directly with the Club Manager of each location and lead the Personal Trainers on the floor. You will partner hand-in-hand with each Club Manager to drive PT revenue, maximize client retention, and build a high-performing culture. Your primary focus is running the department regionally by personally mentoring, training, and holding the personal training staff accountable to high standards of execution.
Responsibilities
• Oversee the recruitment, hiring, onboarding, and continuous skill development of all Personal Trainers within your district.
• Partner closely with each location’s Club Manager to align PT sales goals with overall gym operations, ensuring the front desk and fitness teams work seamlessly together.
• Drive personal training revenue and new member training unit conversion rates by spending time on the gym floor—coaching trainers on client acquisition, lead generation, and high-impact assessment strategies.
• Consistently monitor individual trainer metrics, KPI goals, and client retention numbers. Work directly with trainers to build actionable performance plans and step in immediately to address underperformance.
• Audit day-to-day functions of the personal training teams. Ensure all programs utilize proper tracking systems (session package tracking, renewal pipelines, and lead flow management).
• Foster an engaging, safe, productive, and inviting workout environment. Verify that all club trainers maintain current, nationally accredited certifications and follow strict company health and safety protocols.
Requirements
• Minimum of 3 years of proven management or leadership experience within a "big-box" gym or high-volume multi-unit fitness environment.

• Strong ability to read the numbers, analyze financial results, and partner effectively with Club Managers to pull the right operational levers to maximize profitability.
• A proven history of motivating, influencing, and developing frontline staff.
• High School Diploma or GED required.
• Current, nationally recognized Personal Training Certification (e.g., NASM, ACE, NSCA, ACSM).
