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.
