You’ve Built Great Teams. Now Build Something Bigger.
BODYBAR Pilates is growing. With an established Woodforest studio and a second location coming to Memorial, we are looking for a proven leader to develop strong teams, create an exceptional member experience and drive business results.
We need a leader who can develop people, create accountability, manage operations and turn goals into measurable results.
The Opportunity
You will initially lead our Woodforest studio, learn the BODYBAR business and develop its Assistant Managers. Our new Memorial studio is targeted to open in March 2027.
As we prepare for the opening, you will help recruit, develop and prepare the Memorial team. Once Memorial opens, the position will expand into full operational leadership of both studios.
You will work directly with ownership and lead through the studio management teams—not do everything yourself.
What You’ll Do
- Coach and develop Assistant Managers and their teams.
- Recruit, onboard and retain strong employees.
- Establish clear expectations and accountability.
- Build a positive, collaborative and results-oriented culture.
- Drive membership, sales, retention and revenue performance.
- Monitor KPIs and turn performance data into action plans.
- Coach teams to improve sales execution and member experience.
- Partner with our external lead-generation team to improve bookings, follow-up and conversion.
- Establish consistent operating and service standards.
- Support Memorial through staffing, opening and ongoing operations.
- Create scalable systems that support both locations.
What We’re Looking For
- Five or more years of progressive leadership, operations, sales or customer-focused management experience.
- Proven success leading teams and developing managers or emerging leaders.
- Demonstrated success improving sales, revenue, retention, customer satisfaction or other measurable results.
- Experience recruiting, coaching and retaining employees.
- Confidence using KPIs to drive decisions and accountability.
- Strong communication, organization and problem-solving skills.
- A hands-on, solutions-oriented leadership style.
Experience in boutique fitness, wellness or a membership-based business is strongly preferred. However, we will consider an exceptional leader from another high-touch, customer-focused industry who has a proven record of developing teams, driving recurring revenue, improving customer retention and managing operations.
Multi-location or new-location-opening experience is preferred. Pilates experience or certification is welcome but not required.
You’ll Have Support
You will be supported by two actively involved owners, Assistant Managers, HR and recruiting support, shared marketing and retail resources, an external lead-generation partner and technology for scheduling, communication and member engagement.
Location and Schedule
This is a full-time, hands-on role supporting Woodforest and Memorial. The studios are approximately one hour apart. Candidates must have reliable transportation and be comfortable working at both locations. Some evenings and weekends may be required.
If you are a people-focused, business-minded leader who loves developing teams and driving results, we would love to meet you.
Bring your leadership experience. We’ll help you learn the Pilates business.
