Australia is witnessing a remarkable surge in premium fitness and wellness facilities, and it’s not just about the state-of-the-art equipment or swanky interiors. These places are redefining the industry, and here’s how:

1. Raising the Recruitment Bar: Gone are the days of just hiring anyone with a certification. These top-notch facilities are on the lookout for fitness professionals who stand out. When you consider the scope of high-end member offerings and personalised services on the menu these days businesses are looking for team members who are on top of their game and show willingness to learn. Ego doesn’t fly here, everyone is showing up to be better than they were yesterday.

2. Embrace the Growth Mindset: Candidates, take note! It’s not just about your physique; it’s about your attitude. Show up with enthusiasm, a desire to learn, and a willingness to grow both personally and professionally. If you are coming from another industry, be mindful sometimes you have to take a step back momentarily to move forward while you learn new systems, processes and ways of working. Great leaders are foundationally strong, you can’t teach best practice unless you know it.

3. Values Alignment Matters: It’s more than just a pay check; it’s about sharing the same values and ethos as the brand. Authenticity is the name of the game. Businesses are looking for team members who represent their customers.

4. Do Your Homework: Want to make an impression? Research the brand and its people. Know what makes them tick. Do you understand and embody their vision and mission? We are building teams and cultures that thrive!

These world-class businesses aren’t just looking for “bums on seats.” They’ve got waitlists and a discerning eye for talent. They want leaders and future leaders who represent their customers and embody their commitment to changing lives.

Australia’s premium facilities are ready for you to rise to the occasion!
