JNPT Coaching Opportunity
JNPT is a boutique strength training facility based in Mount Barker in the Adelaide Hills that focuses on helping everyday people build strength, move better and improve their health through high level, structured small-group classes.
We work with a wide range of members, particularly beginners, people returning to training and adults over 30 who want a supportive environment without the intimidation of a typical gym.
We offer a fully individualized experience to our members, providing fully custom built programs to each member based on their own goals, abilities and restrictions.
We’re looking to bring on a coach who fits the JNPT culture, enjoys working closely with people and is motivated to continue developing their coaching skills and build a long-term career in the industry.
About JNPT
We’re currently looking for a coach in a casual role to independently run Group Strength sessions and potentially grow into a larger role over time.

We also want to provide an environment for you to build your own client base and help you develop your own business and coaching skills.
