Job Overview:
Vertex Fitness Group is a franchisee of JETSET Pilates® — a modern, music-driven Pilates brand on a mission to make transformational fitness accessible, community-centered, and scalable. As we grow across the region, we need a trusted regional operational leader who can own day-to-day performance across multiple studios, elevate every team, and drive consistent results across the portfolio.
The Regional Director of Operations / Multi-Unit Operator is the operational backbone across our studios in the region — a confident, high-energy leader who thrives at the intersection of people, process, and performance across multiple locations. You will partner directly with Vertex Fitness Group leadership to translate vision into execution, build a culture clients and staff want to be part of at every studio, and ensure each location is running at its best.
3 Key Responsibilities
1. General Manager Leadership & Development
- Directly lead, coach, and manage General Managers across the region, setting clear expectations around leadership, commercial performance, operations, and team culture.
- Hold GMs accountable for the overall performance of their studios, including revenue, membership growth, retention, staffing, scheduling, payroll efficiency, and member experience.
- Conduct regular 1:1s, performance reviews, and coaching conversations to help GMs solve problems, make confident decisions, and operate independently without relying on constant direction.
- Lead the hiring, onboarding, development, and succession planning of General Managers, while supporting them in building and retaining strong studio teams.
2. Regional Operational Excellence & Client Experience
- Own regional operational performance, ensuring General Managers consistently deliver against JETSET and Vertex standards while remaining accountable for the day-to-day operation of their individual studios.
- Monitor performance across locations, identify risks or inconsistencies early, and coach GMs to resolve issues before they become larger operational problems.
- Build and continuously improve scalable policies, processes, and operating standards that help GMs run their studios effectively and consistently.
- Track KPIs across operations, client experience, staff performance, utilization, and efficiency, using regional insights and best practices to improve performance across the portfolio.
- Act as an escalation point for significant operational or client issues that cannot reasonably be resolved at GM level.
3. Sales, Revenue & Business Performance
- Own commercial performance across the regional portfolio, setting clear expectations for revenue, membership growth, retention, conversion, and profitability while holding each GM accountable for results within their studio.
- Coach GMs on membership sales, lead conversion, grassroots marketing, retention, re-engagement, local partnerships, and community-building strategies.
- Review studio performance and P&L indicators across sales, utilization, payroll, expenses, and other key metrics, helping GMs identify what is driving results and where action is needed.
- Identify performance patterns across locations and determine where additional coaching, regional intervention, new processes, or changes in strategy are required.
- Serve as the primary operational partner to Vertex Fitness Group leadership and support new studio openings and presale by ensuring each GM has a clear plan, the right resources, and strong accountability for execution.
