Growing Gym Looking For Highly Motivated Manager

I'm looking for a highly organized, detail oriented individual to fulfill a unique set of needs. Excel Health and Fitness is searching for a motivated and hard working person to take on the role of Community Manager, a new position within the business.

Excel Health and Fitness’ mission is to help the community get fit and live healthier lives. We believe in enhancing the quality of life in the community by encouraging a healthy, active lifestyle.  Our company has been in business since 2008 as a CrossFit gym.  In 2018 we added a full yoga studio to complement the CrossFit and nutrition programs. 

Now we need someone who has the motivation to take on a new position in the business in order to make a larger impact. 

The new position will be managed from the facility, 40 hours per week. You will be the face of the gym to all members as they come in and out of their workout.

This job is NOT right for the average person that just wants to put in the 9-5 and doesn’t care about the impact they make on the community.

 

But if you genuinely love helping people, solving problems, being super-organized, creating highly effective systems, and working in an up-and-coming organization that improves people’s lives and makes the world a better place, then this may very well be your dream job. Seriously.

You’ll be able to work on – and direct – a part of an organization that is making an impact.

This is your chance to be a positive force with your work, instead of doing the same boring job day-in and day-out.

 

Job Purpose:

As Excel Community Manager, you’ll be responsible for making sure the trains run on time. The perfect person for this position looks for any way they might help to grow the company and help more people.

Key Responsibilities & Accountabilities:

This position will merge a slew of disjointed roles/services we currently use. The goal is to find an individual who wants to take ownership of the role and is in it for the long term. Full time position, 40 hours per week in gym. You must be happy to fulfill needs ranging from cleaning the bathrooms, to data entry in the quickbooks, and everything in between.

  • Work from the front desk & be a welcoming face/energy

  • Help community members with memberships/expired cards, etc.

  • Run retail: Ordering, sales, retail slips, stock inventory, etc.

  • Answer phones, text & call back missed calls and funnel leads to sales

  • Simple bookkeeping (tagging expenses)

  • Basic janitorial for lobby & bathrooms

  • Event planning/promotion

Personal Characteristics:

You’ll be given the opportunity to work autonomously, to proactively drive key projects, and have a large say in the direction of your work.

But in order to be the perfect fit for this position, you’ll need to operate at a high level and have impeccable communication skills so that nothing falls through the cracks.

To do that, I need you to be very prepared, highly organized, a clear thinker, incredibly curious, consistently persistent, willing to learn, and someone who works quickly.

In short, the right person has to be willing to do virtually anything that needs to be done and they have to do it with a smile on their face.

The right person:

-  Is a self-starter who is willing and capable of learning new tasks, while always improving.

- Has experience or baseline knowledge of sales and/or customer service.

- Is incredibly proactive. They look for things that need to be done and they do them. They don't wait around until they are told to do something.

- Organized. We have a lot going on. These are exciting times! We need someone who is deeply, obsessively organized and makes sure no projects get left behind.

- Flexible. You need to be comfortable when plans change when things go wrong. I need someone with a cool head and a can-do attitude.

- Positive. You have to be positive. We don't want to hear complaints. We want to hear what you're doing to make each day a kick ass day. When things go bad, come with ideas for solutions.

- Has a super-clean record. We'll do a detailed background check on you. If you've been in trouble in the past, don't apply.

- Is an excellent communicator: both written and verbal.

- A FAST learner. We'll expose you to many, many new and amazing opportunities. But if you can't pick up new concepts fast, you'll be lost and I'll be frustrated.

- Bonus points if you’re a perfectionist. There’s nothing wrong with getting things right.

Compensation is variable, around $20-$25/hour.

This job is based in Manteca, CA.  You will be required to be on-site 5 days per week.

So, if you think you might be the right person for this job, send me your resume and, more importantly, a cover letter. I don't want some generic cover letter… (If you send a form letter, I'll throw it away without a second thought.)
