About the Role:

We are opening a new DEGREE WELLNESS studio and are hiring an Assistant Manager (Sales) to lead membership sales during our pre-opening phase, with a clear path into long-term studio leadership after launch.

This is an ideal role for someone with fitness, wellness, or membership sales experience who enjoys building relationships, driving results, and stepping into a leadership role within a growing business.

• Pre-opening (founding) membership sales leadership

After launch, you’ll transition into a key leadership role driving:

• Ongoing revenue, team performance, member experience, and studio growth

You will work directly with the owner, playing a key role in shaping systems, team culture, and studio success.

If you’ve worked in:

• Boutique fitness
• Membership sales
• Wellness / recovery / medspa

…and you’re consistently one of the top performers—but feel ready for more responsibility or leadership—keep reading.

We’re looking for someone who not only performs in sales, but genuinely believes in the value of health, recovery, and wellness.

Phase 2: Studio Leadership & Growth (Ongoing Role)

• Continue driving membership and package sales
• Deliver a high-end, personalized member experience
• Build relationships that drive retention and referrals
• Support studio operations including scheduling and POS systems
• Maintain a clean, professional studio environment
• Help onboard and train new team members
• Coach team members on sales process and customer experience
• Lead by example—setting the tone for performance and accountability

Who This Is For:

• 2+ years of sales experience (fitness, wellness, retail, or memberships preferred)
• Prior leadership, training, or mentoring experience preferred
• Proven track record as a top performer in a sales-driven environment
• Strong communication and follow-up skills
