The Little Gym Europe is growing, with 41 gyms and more than 20,000 active members. We’re looking for a Gym Performance Coach to help new franchise partners launch successfully and build strong, sustainable businesses.

- Lead new gym launches: Coordinate the journey from franchise agreement through site development, recruitment, marketing, training and opening.
- Drive commercial performance: Review leads, conversion, membership, revenue and financial plans, turning performance data into practical actions.
- Support entrepreneurs: Help franchise partners navigate challenges, make decisions and take ownership of their business performance.
- Bring teams together: Work closely with the COO, HQ teams and Business Advisors to keep priorities aligned and resolve issues.
- Improve how we work: Strengthen launch processes, track milestones and share best practice across our growing European network.
- Support the first 12 months of trading: Help new gyms move from opening successfully to building sustainable businesses.
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.
Who are we looking for?
You’ll bring significant experience in one or more relevant areas, such as commercial operations, account management, franchise support, project management, business development, customer success, multi-site operations or business coaching.
You’ll be commercially minded, highly organised and confident working with numbers. Just as importantly, you’ll be an excellent communicator who can build trust, challenge constructively and help people find solutions.
You understand that supporting an entrepreneur means knowing when to guide, when to challenge and when to let them take ownership. You’re empathetic with people and sharp on business performance.
