Full-Time Coach / Personal Trainer - Distinct Fitness
We’re on the hunt for a full-time coach to join the team at Distinct Fitness.
Distinct Fitness is a strength and conditioning gym that specialises in personal training. We’re not a commercial chain. We’re a coaching-driven, results-focused gym that prides itself on making every member feel valued the second they walk through the door.
We care deeply about coaching quality, member experience, and building a genuinely positive culture. If you don’t believe us, check out our Google reviews and social media before applying (we actively encourage people to do their research and make sure we’re the right fit for them too).
What makes Distinct different?
This is an opportunity to become part of one of the UK’s top coaching teams without the pressure of finding your own clients, endlessly selling sessions, or fighting for gym floor attention.
We work with real people who want real results. Most of our members are everyday adults looking to become stronger, healthier, more confident, and more capable.
Your role is to deliver world-class coaching in an encouraging, professional environment where members feel supported, challenged, and celebrated.
The kind of person we’re looking for:
We’re not simply looking for someone with a Level 3 qualification.
We’re looking for someone who genuinely loves training, coaching, and self-development.
Someone who:
- Is passionate about helping people live better lives
- Trains consistently themselves and practices what they preach
- Loves strength training, learning about training, and developing as a coach
- Naturally enjoys speaking to people and building relationships
- Has a strong personality and presence within a room
- Is energetic, engaging, and comfortable leading groups
- Wants a real career in coaching, not just a side hustle
- Is hungry to learn, improve, and grow within a team environment
We’re very passionate about continuing education and standards.
If someone completed their Level 3 qualification and hasn’t invested time into learning, developing, or improving since, then realistically this probably won’t be the right environment for them.
We want coaches who are curious, proactive, and obsessed with becoming better at what they do.
