We’re looking for someone who thrives in a goal-oriented environment, enjoys connecting with families, and can confidently balance sales responsibilities with centre leadership.

• Book trial classes, manage prospective member visits, and follow up consistently throughout the sales process.
• Address questions, handle objections, and confidently convert trial families into members.
• Re-engage older leads and identify opportunities within the existing sales pipeline.
• Maintain accurate CRM records, lead statuses, and follow-up activities.
• Meet individual and centre sales targets while tracking key performance indicators, including trial bookings, attendance, and conversion rates.
• Identify opportunities to improve sales processes and the prospective-member experience.

Leadership & Centre Operations

• Serve as Shift Lead when the General Manager is unavailable, providing leadership and support to the coaching team while ensuring smooth daily centre operations.
• Provide direction, guidance, and support to coaches and team members during assigned shifts.
• Maintain high standards for class quality, safety, cleanliness, professionalism, and member experience.
• Provide real-time feedback to team members and assist with onboarding and training when needed.
• Help manage unexpected staffing needs, including call-offs and arranging coverage.
• Address member questions, concerns, and escalations with professionalism and sound judgment.
• Support daily centre operations, including opening and closing responsibilities.
• Proactively resolve day-to-day challenges and escalate significant concerns to the General Manager.

Family Experience & Community Engagement

• Create a welcoming, positive experience for prospective and current KidStrong families.
• Build meaningful relationships with members to encourage satisfaction, retention, and referrals.
• Support new-member onboarding and help families get the most out of their KidStrong experience.
• Represent KidStrong Kleinburg at community events, open houses, and local activations.
• Identify opportunities for local partnerships and community outreach that generate new leads.
• Support centre promotions, referral initiatives, and membership growth campaigns.

• Confidently explain the value of KidStrong to prospective families.
• Maintain an engaged presence in the centre and build positive relationships with students, families, and coaches.
