Health Club Manager
South Hertfordshire
£45k-£50k plus bonus
Brand-new wellness-led health club | Hotel & destination environment | Build it your way
This is not your standard gym management role.
We're recruiting a Health Club Manager to lead a newly evolving health club and gym within a stunning hotel estate setting, as part of an ambitious vision to become a leading UK destination for holistic health, performance and longevity.
Think bio-optimisation meets mindful living.
This role gives you the rare opportunity to build, shape and lead a health club operation almost from the ground up — setting standards, creating systems, and putting your personal stamp on a truly unique wellness offering.
The Concept
The health club sits within extensive landscaped grounds and is undergoing a full regeneration. New facilities and treatments are being introduced, including:
* Advanced recovery and biohacking experiences
* Holistic and alternative wellness treatments
* Cold & heat therapies
* Spa and pool experiences
* Group training, coaching and personal training
This is a full-spectrum wellness offer, not just a gym.
-----------------------------------
The Role
As Gym & Health Club Manager, you'll have ownership of the entire leisure operation — from gym floor culture to commercial performance.
You'll:
* Lead from the front on the gym floor, inspiring members and guests
* Recruit, develop and lead a high-performing fitness and leisure team
* Drive member onboarding, assessments and ongoing progress reviews
* Ensure facilities are safe, welcoming and consistently well-presented
* Work closely with the wider hotel team to maximise guest experience and revenue
* Lead local marketing initiatives, social media, referrals and community engagement
This is a hands-on leadership role — perfect for someone who enjoys being operational, visible and influential.
-----------------------------------
About You
You'll be an experienced leisure or fitness manager who thrives in an environment where you can build rather than inherit.
You'll ideally have:
* A genuine passion for fitness, wellness and emerging industry trends
* Strong leadership presence and coaching mindset
* Experience delivering or overseeing group training and PT
* Level 3 PT qualification
* Excellent communication and customer service skills
Additional leisure qualifications (lifeguard, pool plant, first aid, etc.) are highly desirable but not essential.
-----------------------------------
What's In It For You?
* Genuine autonomy to shape your division
* Long-term career development within a growing hotel group
* Ongoing training, qualifications and apprenticeships
* Complimentary or discounted leisure membership
* Significant discounts on hotels, food and beverage
* Cycle to work scheme
* Employee assistance and wellbeing support
* Wage streaming and financial wellbeing resources
* Increasing annual leave
* On-site parking and travel discounts
-----------------------------------
If you're a progressive fitness or leisure leader who wants more than just managing a gym — someone excited by wellness, innovation, and creating exceptional experiences — this role offers something genuinely different.
