Club Manager in Melbourne

Club Manager in Melbourne, Australia - Award Winning 24/7 Gym Group (UK Candidates Relocating)

AUD $80,000 base + circa AUD $1,000 per month commission + superannuation on top.

Location: Open to candidates currently based in the United Kingdom, with the role itself based in Melbourne, Australia . You must be eligible for the Australian Working Holiday visa to apply.

Our client is a multi site gym group operating inside one of the world's largest 24/7 fitness franchises, with six clubs across two of Melbourne's fastest growing suburbs and sixteen more planned over the next two to three years. They're looking for a Club Manager to run a single club end to end: the team, the members, the sales and the day to day.

This is a genuine chance to build a career in Australia rather than just visit it. Every club in the group sits inside the top ten nationally, and they hold a world record pre sale alongside multiple number one Club Manager and Franchisee awards. They open new clubs every year, so a strong Club Manager here has a clear route into a regional or multi site role, and no cold outreach or street canvassing is involved because the marketing engine already brings the enquiries in.

On offer is a base salary of AUD $80,000 with commission built to be steady rather than a chase, a community first club culture where members of every age and background are looked after, and relocation support to help you land well in Melbourne.

Working pattern: Permanent and full time, on site.

Key responsibilities:

• Lead the club: Own delegation, the daily plan and the bigger calls, from cancellations and group discounts to member complaints.
• Convert the leads: Marketing brings the enquiries in, so speed of follow up is the job, getting to people while they're hot.
• Run the daily huddle: Lead the 10:15 team call and know every team member's stats and conversion rates.
• Set the standard: Be visible on the floor, known by name, and the example for how the harder conversations get handled.
• Grow the team: Develop your Assistant Club Manager and membership consultants so they're ready when the next club opens.
• Hit the targets: Around 150 to 200 new memberships a month per club, with retention and referrals sitting behind them.

About you:

• Eligible to relocate: A UK passport holder aged 18 to 35 and eligible for the Australian Working Holiday visa, which needs no employer sponsorship.
• Sales and people leadership: A track record of leading a team and hitting membership or sales targets in a gym, health club or leisure setting.
• Organised: You plan your days properly and balance a fun floor with professional standards.
• People first: You care about members and their journey, not just the number on the board.
• Open to feedback: You take direct, upfront feedback as information rather than as a personal knock.
• Ready to reset: Happy to learn a new process and park how the last club did things.
• At ease with everyone: Comfortable with members from every background, including those whose English is limited.

What's in it for you:

• Base salary of AUD $80,000 per year, with superannuation on top.
• Commission of around AUD $1,000 a month, spread across the year so stronger early months balance the quieter ones, and overperformance is rewarded rather than required.
• A route to up to three years in Australia across three Working Holiday visas, with multiple clubs in the group making continuous work simple to arrange.
• Support getting set up on arrival
• A clear path into a regional or multi site role as the group grows from six clubs towards twenty two.
