About the Role

D1 Training Lincolnshire is seeking an energetic, passionate, and experienced Head Strength & Conditioning Coach to lead our coaching team and deliver an exceptional training experience for every athlete who walks through our doors.

This role combines hands-on coaching, staff leadership, athlete development, and personal training management. As the Head Coach, you will set the standard for coaching excellence, member experience, and team culture while helping grow a brand-new D1 Training facility.

This is not a role where you're stepping into an established system. You'll help build the culture, develop the coaching team, and shape the athlete experience from day one. We're looking for someone who wants to leave their fingerprint on a facility and grow with the business long-term.

What You'll Do

Coaching & Athlete Development

  • Lead and coach group training sessions for youth athletes, adults, and teams

  • Deliver high-energy, results-driven workouts that align with the D1 Training methodology

  • Conduct athlete assessments and goal-setting consultations

  • Provide personal training and individualized coaching as needed

  • Ensure proper movement mechanics, exercise execution, and injury prevention strategies

  • Create an exceptional training environment that motivates athletes of all ages and abilities

Leadership & Staff Development

  • Recruit, hire, onboard, and develop coaching staff

  • Lead weekly coach meetings and ongoing professional development initiatives

  • Conduct coaching observations and performance evaluations

  • Hold coaches accountable to D1 standards, expectations, and member experience goals

  • Build a culture of professionalism, positivity, and continuous improvement

  • Manage coach scheduling and staffing needs

Personal Training Management

  • Oversee personal training operations and service quality

  • Support personal training growth and revenue objectives

  • Ensure consistency across all personal training sessions

  • Assist coaches in developing and retaining personal training clients

Member Experience & Business Growth

  • Track and improve member engagement, attendance, and retention

  • Build strong relationships with athletes and families

  • Support trial workouts, athlete evaluations, and onboarding experiences

  • Partner with sales staff to improve conversion and retention metrics

  • Assist with camps, combines, team training opportunities, and community outreach events

  • Serve as a leader and ambassador for the D1 Training brand within the community

What We're Looking For:

Required Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience in strength and conditioning, personal training, sports performance, or athletic development

  • Experience coaching group training sessions in a fast-paced environment

  • Strong knowledge of exercise science, movement mechanics, and injury prevention

  • Ability to motivate athletes and create a positive training atmosphere

  • Excellent leadership, communication, and organizational skills

  • CPR/AED certification required

Preferred Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Exercise Science, Kinesiology, Sports Performance, or a related field

  • Prior leadership experience managing, mentoring, or developing coaching staff

  • Experience coaching youth athletes ages 7–18

  • Understanding of long-term athletic development principles

  • CSCS (Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist) strongly preferred

  • NASM, NSCA, USAW, ACE, FMS, or other nationally recognized certifications preferred

Who You Are

  • You lead by example and set a high standard for those around you.

  • You thrive in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.

  • You take ownership and solve problems without being asked.

  • You are passionate about developing both athletes and coaches.

  • You bring energy, professionalism, and positivity every day.

  • You care deeply about creating an elite training experience.

  • You believe culture, accountability, and relationships drive long-term success.

What Success Looks Like

Success in this role includes:

  • Delivering exceptional training experiences every day

  • Developing high-performing coaches and staff

  • Improving member retention and attendance

  • Growing personal training participation and revenue

  • Maintaining coaching excellence across all sessions

  • Creating a culture that athletes, parents, and members want to be part of

Why D1 Training Lincolnshire?

  • Be part of a brand-new facility opening in one of Chicagoland's premier communities

  • Help build the coaching culture from day one

  • Work with youth athletes, adults, teams, and personal training clients

  • Direct access to ownership and leadership decision-making

  • Opportunities for advancement as the business grows

  • Competitive compensation with performance-based bonus opportunities

  • Make a measurable impact on hundreds of athletes and families

Compensation

$55,000 - $75,000+ annually

Compensation includes a combination of base salary, coaching responsibilities, personal training opportunities, and performance-based bonuses.

If you're a coach who naturally takes ownership, pushes standards higher, and builds strong teams, you'll thrive at D1 Training.

This is your opportunity to lead from the front, develop other coaches, and shape the experience for every athlete who walks through the door. You won't just run workouts—you'll set the tone for the entire facility.

If you're ready to step into a leadership role where your impact shows up every day, we'd love to hear from you.
