The Exercise Coach Winston-Salem is looking for a dependable, personable, and organized Part-Time Fitness Coach to join our growing team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys helping people, building meaningful relationships, and contributing to a positive team environment. Relevant experience could come from fitness, customer service, healthcare, education, hospitality, athletics, administration, or another people-focused role.

What You’ll Do

• Coach clients one-on-one through safe, effective, technology-based strength-training sessions

• Build positive relationships and help clients feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged

• Learn each client’s goals and help them recognize their progress

• Maintain accurate client notes and complete routine administrative responsibilities

• Keep the studio clean, organized, and ready for clients

• Interested in health, fitness, and helping people improve their quality of life

• Able to work independently while contributing to a team

Previous fitness, coaching, customer service, or sales experience is helpful, but it is not required. A fitness-related degree or personal-training certification is also not required.

This position offers approximately 10–20 hours per week, with a guaranteed minimum of 10 hours. Most shifts are approximately four hours.

We have opportunities for both morning and afternoon availability, although afternoon and closing (7 pm) coverage remains our greatest need. Candidates with primarily morning availability may still be considered. Applicants should clearly indicate the days and times they are consistently available.

Rotating Saturday availability from 8:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m., approximately one to two days per month, is expected.

We will work with the right candidate to create a consistent schedule within our operating hours:

• Monday–Friday: 7:00 a.m.–7:00 p.m.

• Saturday: 8:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m.
