Fitness General Manager | San Diego, CA

We're on the hunt for a General Manager who can handle 7,500 square feet of martial arts awesomeness, grow and develop our community to 700 members, and keep the operation running smoother than a black belt on the mats. If you're a leader, a hustler, and someone who thrives on making things happen, this role is for you.

This isn't just a job-it's an opportunity to shape the future of our gym, prepare us for expansion (yes, we want to open more locations), and create a franchise-style operation that sets the standard for excellence while running smarter, not harder.

OWN THE OPERATIONS:

• Keep our 7,500 square-foot facility in tip-top shape. From cleanliness to equipment maintenance, you'll make sure everything is running like a well-oiled machine.
• Create systems and processes now that will make future expansions smooth and efficient.
• Ensure all classes, intro sessions, and schedules run on time with no hiccups.

BUILD THE FAM:

• Welcome every guest, member, and prospect like they're stepping into their second home.
• Handle member inquiries and feedback with professionalism but keep it real when it counts.
• Hit the 700-member target by driving sales and converting prospects into die-hard fans of what we do.

DRIVE THE CASH FLOW:

• Sales, sales, sales-memberships, gear, events-you're here to generate revenue AND profit.
• Stay on top of invoices, payments, and financial tracking. After all, revenue is cool, but profit is where it's at.
• Collaborate on marketing strategies that get people talking about us (and signing up). Social media, local outreach, promotions-you know the drill.

LEAD THE TEAM:

• Be the leader who motivates and inspires. From instructors to front desk staff, you'll ensure the whole team is aligned, performing, and pumped to be a part of a growing facility.
• Handle payroll, commissions, and contracts with precision.
• Cultivate a positive and collaborative work environment.

PLAN BIG, ACT SMART:

• Think long-term. We're not just about today-we're thinking 5, 10, 15 years down the road.
• Work with ownership to prepare for future franchise locations.
• Make decisions confidently and independently-no micromanaging here.

What We're Looking For:

• You're a self-starter who doesn't wait around for instructions. You make things happen.
• You're sales- and profit-driven but also know how to create an unforgettable member experience.
• You're forward-thinking and ready to help us expand into new locations while building a franchise-level operation.
• You're a leader who can motivate your team, solve problems, and keep everything moving forward.
• You're financially motivated and understand that the more the gym succeeds, the more you do too.

Skills & Experience You Bring to the Mats:

• High school diploma required; bonus points for a degree in Business, Marketing, or Management.
• At least 2 years of management, customer service, or sales experience (fitness industry is a major plus).
• Proven ability to hit sales targets and manage financial operations.
• Great communication skills-you can talk to anyone and close deals like a pro.
• A natural knack for organization and time management.
• Familiarity with CRM systems, inventory management, and marketing tools.
• Social media savvy-you know how to create buzz and keep people engaged.
• Passion for Jiu Jitsu, martial arts, or fitness? Even better.
