Next Lives at the University of Cincinnati

Founded in 1819, the University of Cincinnati ranks among the nation's best urban public research universities. Home to more than 53,600 students, 12,000 faculty and staff, and over 360,000 living alumni, UC, a Carnegie 1 institution, combines research prowess with a physical setting The New York Times has called "the most ambitious campus design program in the country." UC's momentum has never been stronger as the anchor of the Cincinnati Innovation District, the oldest cooperative education (co-op) program in the country with students earning $94 million annually through paid experiences, an academic health system, and as a member of the Big 12 Conference. The university contributes $10.6 billion in economic impact to the city and $22.7 billion to the state of Ohio. At UC, next is all of us. Learn more at uc.edu.

Primary Duties

Campus Recreation's mission is to create an inclusive environment that inspires movement and community. In addition to offering an award-winning fitness facility, we strive to be a place where members can connect with one another in a safe and positive environment.

Campus Recreation includes three fitness spaces: Campus Recreation Center, the Fitness Center at CARE/Crawley, and the Siddall Fitness Center. Our three facilities offer many ways for members to get active - from cardio and weight equipment, to group fitness, swimming pools, a climbing wall and more. We look for teammates who uphold the same values as we do: teamwork, educating, problem-solving, curiosity, and fun.
