Detailed Description From Employer:
Location: Unstoppable Training Studio, 311 Richmond Road, Kingston upon Thames, KT2 5QU
Employment Type: Self-Employed / Sole Trader
Unstoppable Training Studio is a private, focused training space built for results. We move away from generic "big gym" workouts to provide structured, result-driven programming in an exclusive environment. Our studio is fully equipped for high-performance training with:
- Ergs: Concept2 Rowers, SkiErgs, and BikeErgs.
- Resistance: Full range of Barbells, Free Weights, and versatile Cable Machines.
We are looking for a versatile coach who can excel in two distinct environments:
- High-Energy Class Instruction (50-Minute Sessions): Leading high-intensity, structured sessions. We need a coach with "stage presence" who can command the room, manage the tempo, and keep the energy levels peaking.
- Professional Personal Training (1-Hour Sessions): Delivering technical, 1-on-1 and 2-on-1 sessions. You will be responsible for ensuring clients reach their specific goals—whether that is weight loss, muscle gain, or preparation for elite competitions like HYROX, Metrix, and Hybrid Games.
Core Responsibilities:
- Lead Group Classes: Deliver up to 19 high-intensity sessions per week with elite-level motivation.
- Professional 1-on-1 PT: Manage a dedicated roster of clients with a focus on technical excellence and goal tracking.
- Result Tracking: Monitor client progress through data and performance to ensure they are hitting their targets.
- Member Retention: Build strong relationships within our private community to ensure long-term client success.
Candidate Requirements
Experience:
- Mandatory: Minimum 2,000 hours of proven 1-to-1 PT and group coaching experience.
Qualifications:
- Level 3 Personal Training & Level 2 Fitness Instructor.
Class Style:
- High energy, motivational, and able to manage timing/intensity effectively.
PT Style:
- Professional, detail-oriented, and focused on specific client outcomes (Weight loss/Strength/Competition).
Technical Skill:
- Highly proficient with Barbells, Cable Machines, and Ergs (Row/Ski/Bike).
Status: Registered Sole Trader with CIMSPA, REPs etc.
The "Unstoppable" Bonus (Nutrition)
We would highly value a candidate with a Degree in Nutrition, Dietetics, or a Level 4 Nutrition certification. Not a dealbreaker: If you are a world-class coach without a nutrition degree, we still want to hear from you!
*For those with nutrition qualifications, there is an additional opportunity to lead nutritional consultations and provide dietary strategies for our members, further expanding your role within the studio.*
Compensation Structure
This role operates on a self-employed basis. As an independent contractor at Unstoppable Training Studio, your earnings are directly linked to the sessions you deliver. You will be paid a set rate for every 50-minute class led and a dedicated rate for every 1-on-1 or 2-on-1 PT hour completed. Specific rates will be discussed during the interview process based on experience and qualifications.
How to Apply
If you have the 2,000+ hours of experience and the energy to lead a private studio community, please submit your CV and a brief summary of your coaching philosophy.
