BetterYOU Fitness | Pakenham, VIC
$80,000 + Super + Performance Bonus | Full-Time
About BetterYOU Fitness
BetterYOU Fitness is an independently owned gym in Pakenham with a strong local member community and ambitious plans for continued growth.
We’ve built the club around high standards, great equipment, a strong member experience and creating an environment people genuinely enjoy being part of.
We’re now looking for an experienced Gym Manager to take ownership of the day-to-day performance of the club and help lead BetterYOU through its next stage of growth.
This is an opportunity for someone who doesn’t just want to work in a gym — you want to help run one.
The Opportunity
You’ll work closely with the owner while taking responsibility for the day-to-day leadership and performance of the club.
You’ll have genuine input into how the gym operates, how the team performs, how we improve the member experience and how we continue growing the business.
This is a hands-on leadership position.
You’ll be on the gym floor, leading staff, speaking with members, driving sales, reviewing KPIs, solving problems and continually looking for ways to improve the club.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
- Club Operations — ensure the gym operates smoothly and maintains excellent standards across presentation, cleanliness, maintenance, staffing and member experience.
- Team Leadership — lead, train, develop and hold staff accountable while helping create a positive, high-performing culture.
- Sales & Growth — drive membership sales, lead follow-up, renewals and other initiatives that contribute to club revenue.
- Member Retention — build strong relationships with members, resolve issues and identify opportunities to improve retention and satisfaction.
- Performance Management — monitor key KPIs across membership growth, sales, retention, revenue and team performance.
- Business Development — help execute marketing initiatives, events, partnerships, community outreach and new ideas that grow the club.
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone who combines leadership, commercial awareness and strong people skills.
You’ll be someone who takes ownership rather than waiting to be told what to do.
You’ll ideally have:
- Previous experience leading or managing a team
- Previous sales experience and confidence working towards targets
- Strong communication and customer service skills
- Experience managing staff performance
- Strong organisation and time-management skills
- A proactive, solutions-focused mindset
- High personal standards and attention to detail
- Confidence working with KPIs and performance targets
- A genuine interest in health, fitness and helping people
Previous management experience is highly regarded but not essential.
We hire the person over the experience.
Why Join BetterYOU?
This isn’t a position where you’ll disappear into a large corporate structure.
You’ll have:
- Genuine ownership and autonomy within the club
- Direct access to the business owner
- The opportunity to influence decisions and implement your ideas
- Performance bonuses for achieving key targets
- A role where your results are visible and recognised
- The opportunity to develop your leadership and commercial skills
- A growing business where there is a genuine opportunity to progress
Most importantly, you'll have the opportunity to make the club better and see the direct result of your work.
This Role Will Suit You If...
You enjoy being responsible for results.
You like leading people, selling, solving problems and improving businesses.
You notice problems before someone has to point them out.
You’re comfortable having difficult conversations when standards aren’t being met.
And you want more responsibility than simply completing a list of tasks every day.
How to Apply
Apply through SEEK with your CV.
We’re particularly interested in seeing measurable achievements from previous roles — team size, sales results, revenue growth, KPIs achieved or improvements you were responsible for.
Pay: $80,000.00 per year
