Junior Club Manager in West London - Premium Fitness Club, Genuine Route to General Manager

Up to £32k + Bonus

Location: West London

Our client is a premium health and fitness operator known for blending cutting-edge training with recovery-focused facilities to create an exceptional member experience tailored to individual needs. They're looking for an ambitious Junior Club Manager to take a leading role in their West London club, with a genuinely fast-tracked route through to General Manager as the business continues to grow.

This is the natural next step for someone who has already proven themselves as an Assistant General Manager and is ready for wider ownership. You'll take on a broader slice of the club's day-to-day running, working closely with senior leadership to sharpen your commercial and operational skills, and building the experience needed to run a club of your own in the near future.

On offer is a strong basic salary plus bonus, hands-on mentoring from experienced General Managers, and huge progression potential into a General Manager role as the business expands.

Working pattern: Full-time, working a mix of shifts across a 7-day operation, including some evenings and weekends to reflect peak member usage.

Key responsibilities:

• Member experience: Create unforgettable moments every day, empowering members to smash their goals and love the journey, and championing service excellence on the gym floor so every member feels valued and supported.

• Leading from the front: Be highly visible and approachable on the gym floor, setting the pace and leading by example to foster a positive, energetic environment for members and staff.

• Team development: Take an active role in building and developing a high-performing team, supporting and mentoring Membership Associates and Personal Trainers, and encouraging continuous learning and professional growth.

• Commercial growth: Help drive ambitious member sales and retention strategies to exceed targets, and identify commercial opportunities such as personal training and secondary spend to support the club's financial success.

• Community connections: Build local events and partnerships that make the club the heart of the community, raising its profile and strengthening member engagement.

• Operational excellence: Take ownership of smooth day-to-day operations through smart scheduling and high standards, and proactively seek improvements while upholding brand values throughout.

• Collaboration: Work closely with the General Manager to align on club goals, share feedback and progress, and help foster a culture of teamwork and open communication across the site.

About you:

• Background: Proven experience as an Assistant General Manager or similar within a premium fitness setting, with a strong focus on service excellence, member experience, sales and operations.

• Leadership: A natural leader who thrives in fast-paced settings, is confident engaging with people on the ground, and is ready to take on greater ownership and responsibility.

• Ambition: A genuine passion for fitness and a clear drive to progress into General Manager, ready to build on your experience and make the step up.

What's in it for you:

• A competitive bonus structure on top of a strong basic salary.

• Huge progression potential, with a clear and genuine pathway into a General Manager role.

• Hands-on mentoring and support from experienced senior leaders as you develop.

• The chance to help shape the club and make a real, visible impact.

• A generous holiday allowance including bank holidays.
