The Role Outline: Your Shift at a Glance
As our Group Exercise Fitness Manager, you are the ultimate architect of the studio. You will coordinate our internal coaching team and manage a dedicated roster of external freelance instructors to deliver a vibrant, high calibre timetable. Working alongside the Leisure Club Manager, you will use cutting edge tech like Myzone and partner with industry giants like Les Mills to ensure our classes absolutely dominate the local market.
Why Village?
At Village, we do hospitality a little differently. We are all about personality, genuine connections, and creating lively spaces for our guests to work, eat, relax, and play. That is why we back our teams to be themselves, take ownership, learn new skills, and grow their careers.
Previous management experience is great, but your attitude, emotional intelligence, and commercial resilience matter much more to us. If you are a natural leader with a passion for helping others smash their goals, we will give you all the support, training, and opportunities you need. Because it really does take a Village.
How the Village Thrives
We live our culture through four simple commitments:
- We Can & We Do: We show up to make a genuine difference and do fantastic work every day, with purpose.
- We Will: Treat each other with respect and dignity. No ego, no drama. We try our best and look out for each other.
- We Care: We care about our impact on guests, the community, and each other.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Your Shift: What You Will Actually Be Doing
We do not just need a great instructor standing at the front of a room. We need a super organised commercial leader. We trust you to handle:
- The Timetable Reality: Building the schedule. You will create a vibrant, balanced timetable featuring Village Exclusive classes alongside Les Mills, Zumba, and Hiit Company, ensuring we hit our strict occupancy and visit targets.
- The People Management: Wrangling the talent. You will lead, coach, and motivate both our internal team and a complex roster of external freelance staff, ensuring they have the product knowledge and raw energy to deliver beyond expectations.
- The Commercial Hustle: Protecting the numbers. You will treat the studio like your own business, achieving budgeted spend, monitoring class performance, and ensuring we smash our internal health, safety, and brand audit scores.
- The Tech & Trends: Keeping us cutting edge. You will upskill your team using technology like Myzone and foster a culture where instructors are constantly developing their own group delivery.
How We Succeed Together
We do not micromanage. It takes a village, so we believe in Ownership & Integrity, giving you the autonomy to manage your schedule, solve practical problems, and handle the daily instructor politics on the fly. We Empower & Elevate our people. If you want Room to Grow, we provide excellent training and development to help you step up in your management career.
