Openings: 1 Location: Nairobi – Lavington (James Gichuru / Gitanga crescent) Overview: Running a premium urban gym is more than crunches and treadmills, it’s orchestrating an entire member experience. From P&L management and membership growth to PT scheduling and class rosters, your fingerprints are on everything. Every decision, from equipment uptime to service standards, directly shapes how members feel, perform, and stay loyal. Lead from the front, but do it with style. Greet members, coach staff, troubleshoot on the fly, and turn casual visitors into raving fans. Safety and hygiene checklists aren’t just compliance, they’re the quiet heroes behind a smooth, trusted operation. Numbers tell the story, but so do the softer wins. Net growth, retention, and NPS measure impact, yet nothing replaces the satisfaction of a flawlessly run class, a trainer hitting their stride, or a member sharing how the gym changed their routine.
