Movement Coach / Personal Trainer in Melbourne

MOVEMENT COACH / PERSONAL TRAINER

This is a coaching role designed to help you develop properly, not just get busy

CORE FOUNDATIONS

is a biomechanics-first personal training studio focused on long-term outcomes, coaching quality, and sustainable movement.

We are seeking 1–2 motivated coaches who want to build real skill, confidence, and professional depth, not just fill sessions or chase short-term results.

This role is ideal for a trainer who values education, precision, and one-on-one coaching, and who wants a clear pathway to grow hours and responsibility over time.

• Up to 6 paid hours per week
• No client delivery initially
• Structured onboarding into our culture, systems and standards

• Full access to CFX, our online education and training

Months 2–3 – Supported Client Integration

• Gradual introduction to 1:1 client sessions
• Ongoing mentoring and feedback
• Continued education and skill development
• Increase in paid coaching hours as competence and confidence grow

Months 4–6 – Growth & Responsibility

• High-performing coaches can progress to 25–35 sessions per week
• Greater independence with clients
• Clear pathway toward part-time or full-time employment, based on performance and fit

Progression is performance-based, not time-based.

What You'll Be Doing

• Delivering high-quality one-on-one personal training sessions
• Conducting posture, movement, and gait assessments (full training provided)
• Coaching clients who are serious about improving their health and movement
• Working within a structured, evidence-informed coaching system
• Collaborating with allied health and nutrition professionals where required
• Upholding CORE FOUNDATIONS' coaching standards and client experience

What We Offer You

• Paid onboarding and paid training hours

• Access to the CORE4 Method and ongoing education via CFX
• Direct mentorship from experienced senior coaches
• No sales targets, no lead chasing, no group classes
• Competitive hourly rate aligned with the current Fitness Industry Award
• Clear performance-based pathway from casual to full-time employment & beyond
• A professional, supportive environment focused on long-term development

Who This Role Is Suited To

• Cert IV in Fitness (minimum) or equivalent
• 1–3 years of experience as a personal trainer
• Strong interest in biomechanics, movement quality, and coaching fundamentals
• Coachable, self-aware, and motivated to improve
• Comfortable starting with limited hours and growing through performance
• Seeking a role that prioritises learning, quality, and professionalism
