POSITION DESCRIPTION

Are you an outperformer who thrives on ownership, accountability, and winning as a team? Do you have what it takes to open a flagship location from the ground up — and build a community from zero to extraordinary?  
Do you lead like a business owner—and love the energy, purpose, and impact of fitness? Have you ever wanted to be part of something before it opens — to build culture before the doors do?

You will be fully accountable for performance, culture, and business results from Day 1. 

You operate with the mindset of a Franchise Partner, driving results as if the business were your own — while leveraging the full power and resources of Burn Boot Camp Headquarters.
