We don't hire trainers. We forge coaches. Every member of the IRONFORGE crew — from the front desk to the head coach — is held to the same standard we hold our athletes: show up, do the work, own the result.
Why IRONFORGE
IRONFORGE is an elite fitness studio with three locations, twelve coaches, and zero compromises. We are deliberately small, deliberately demanding, and deliberately different:
- Coaching-first culture — coaches design programs, not sales targets. We have no commission quotas
- Real development — an annual education budget, in-house mentorship, and certification support for every coach
- Fair pay — salaried coaching roles with transparent bands, not per-class piecework
- The standard — small class caps mean you actually coach, correct, and connect with every athlete in the room
Open Positions
Strength & Conditioning Coach — Downtown
Full-time. You'll lead Iron Mass and Power Block cycles, run onboarding assessments, and own the progress of a roster of up to 40 athletes. Requires a recognised S&C certification and 3+ years of coaching experience in a group or semi-private setting.
MetCon Coach — Northside
Full-time or part-time. High-energy conditioning classes with a focus on safe scaling across mixed-ability groups. Requires a nationally recognised fitness certification and experience programming interval-based training.
Front Desk & Member Experience — All Locations
Part-time. First face our members see at 05:30 and the last at 22:00. You'll manage check-ins, tour prospective members, and keep the floor running. No fitness certification required — reliability and warmth are the job.
What We Offer
- Salaried roles with transparent pay bands reviewed annually
- Full facility access at all three locations, for you and a plus-one
- Annual continuing-education budget and paid certification days
- Health coverage for full-time crew
- A community that trains together — crew workouts every Friday
Hiring Process
Our process is fast and honest — four steps, typically completed within three weeks:
- Application — send your CV and a short note on why you coach
- Conversation — a 30-minute call with the head coach of your location
- Floor session — coach a real class segment with our crew observing
- Offer — terms in writing within one week of your floor session
No ghosting, guaranteed. Every applicant gets a response — including a straight answer if it's a no. That's the standard we'd want, so it's the standard we hold.
How to Apply
Email your CV and a short introduction to ironforge@yamaad.dev with the position title in the subject line. If nothing above fits but you believe you belong here, write to us anyway — the right person always gets a conversation.
