Now Hiring

Personal Trainer / Strength & Conditioning Coach

  • CHESTER, NJ / BEDMINSTER, NJ
  • [FULL-TIME / PART-TIME]

Bolt Fitness & Performance Training is hiring a full-time coach to join a structured, principle-driven training system serving 200+ adult clients (primarily 40+) and 80+ youth athletes (12–20). We’re opening a second location in the fall of 2026, and we’re building the next generation of leaders to grow with us.

If you got into coaching to actually coach — not sell memberships, not run circuits for applause — keep reading.

The Role

You’ll coach:

  • Adult small group training (structured programming, high execution standard)
  • Semi-private training (individualized within a shared setting)
  • Sports performance (if qualified — if not, you'll be trained)

This isn’t “run the whiteboard.” It’s managing stimulus and fatigue, individualizing on the fly, driving measurable progression, and commanding a room of adults 40+ who have careers, families, and old injuries — without needing to perform for them. That’s the standard, and it’s non-negotiable.

Typical schedule:

  • 25-30 sessions/week
  • 5-10 hours/week of member follow-up and program design
  • Weekday mornings and/or evenings. 1-2 Saturdays per month
  • No split shifts

The Growth Path

We’re scaling toward multiple locations and looking for future operators, not shift-fillers. Coaches who master our model and lead by example have a real path into:

  • Lead Coach
  • Program Oversight
  • Facility Leader for future locations

What We're Looking For

Skill matters, culture matters more. Our values, in short:

  • Clear Is Kind — say what you mean, mean what you say
  • Be Anti-Fragile — adapt, don't break
  • White Belt Mentality — nobody has all the answers; growth is constant
  • Do What You Say You'll Do — follow-through builds trust
  • Keep the Goal the Goal — better beats more; row together
  • Be Where Your Feet Are — show up fully for whoever's in front of you
  • Be Genuinely Curious — dig deeper, ask better questions

If that excites you, you’ll fit here.

This probably isn’t your spot if: you want to “just run workouts,” lean on hype over competence, resist structure, or want a job instead of a career.
