Fitness Coach (Part Time/Casual) - CrossFit Leixlip, KILDARE - Ireland

Have a passion for people and helping them with health and fitness ? Want to Coach in a gym with the coolest members? Want to feel valued and content in a small close knit community gym?

Our fitness facility based in Mill Lane Business Park, Leixlip is continuing to grow and we are ready to find our next Fitness Coach (a role that we’ve created for a coach looking to not just coach classes and leave, but a role with expansion in mind for the coach, if they want!) Our club is for athletes and everyday fitness enthusiasts alike and we are seeking a highly motivated, outgoing and approachable coach to join the small team here in CFL. 

We are looking for somebody who loves to get involved with people, has a bubbly, caring personality and who wants to work in a Team environment with like-minded people! Coaching expectations will be set out through the interview and  onboarding process, it’s important to us that you understand CFL’s core values and vision.

To help us best support our members and keep our member base growing and to deliver an effective service we would encourage a person who’s not afraid to fail, or have fun, who wants to see others succeed and understands the emotional wellbeing of people you are chatting to, to get in touch. We want to continue to positively impact the CFL community as much as possible and with the right person with the right attitude we know we can give more. 

We do not sell the quick fix, we work on educating our clients and ensuring that they have the best chance to succeed in their fitness endeavours. We understand that fitness affects all parts of our lives inside & out. We have an inclusive environment that attracts and retains our members for long periods of time. 

The Coaching Team at CFL have a close but professional bond with the CFL Crew and are excited to bring more to the table with an expansion to the coaching team. 

The successful candidate will show a high degree of initiative, will be open to feedback and have an eagerness to learn.

This can be a casual or part-time role with the vision for the future being grown into a full time role after further mentoring, development and education - should you wish to develop further.. The successful person will ideally have a background or interest in Nutrition (not mandatory to apply) and will be open to working some early mornings from 5:30am to midday shifts and some evening shifts until 9pm. The coaching team shares the workload at the weekends and generally cover is needed once a month or as needed for Holidays. 

Upon being hired you can expect to work anywhere from 1-4 hours casually or part time 10 hours per week in your first few months, growing this by 20 hours per week while going through the mentorship and development program to eventually working full time hours (40 hours per week) as a Coach. These hours are a guide. 

This is truly a path to becoming an influential coach in the Irish CrossFit scene in Ireland and all experience levels may apply.

If you love CrossFit, love people, drop us a mail or telephone call and let's get talking! 

As part of the team, you will have a learning opportunity about the science of programming for athletes, increase your own self-leadership skills, contribute to the wellbeing of others and work in an inspirational team culture. We are truly chasing a TEAM PLAYER, someone who wants to be part of a Team and give to others, someone who can coach and be coachable in equal measure.
