Burn Boot Camp Flowood

Joining a gym is only the beginning

What happens after someone joins determines whether they become a long-term member, get great results, tell their friends about Burn, or quietly disappear. We want someone who takes ownership of that journey.

The Trainer / Member Success Specialist is one of three full-time working leaders responsible for operating and growing our gym. Everyone on the leadership team:

Each leader also owns a critical business outcome. For this position: Keep It.

But retention isn't about talking someone out of canceling after they've already decided to leave. It starts much earlier. It's about helping people feel known, connected, accountable, and successful.

Your mission

Help our members get results, stay engaged, and remain part of Burn

You should know:

Who just joined?
Who hasn't been here?
Who is struggling?
Who needs a Focus Meeting?
Who just hit a milestone?
Who is becoming disconnected?
Who loves Burn enough to refer a friend?
Who might cancel if nobody reaches out?

Your job is to help us know those answers before they become problems.

Where you fit

One of three full-time leaders

Each leader trains, serves, and helps operate the gym, and each owns one critical part of the business.

Responsibilities

What you will own

New member onboarding

A membership should not begin with someone signing an agreement and then being forgotten. You will help own the new-member journey:

  • New-member welcome
  • Early check-ins and first-week follow-up
  • 30-, 60-, and 90-day engagement
  • Setting expectations and helping members understand Burn
  • Connecting members to Trainers and the community
  • Identifying early warning signs

Attendance & engagement

If a regular member suddenly disappears, we should know. You will help monitor:

  • Attendance and decreases in attendance
  • Extended absences
  • At-risk members
  • Members returning from freezes
  • Members who may need additional accountability

Then you will help make sure somebody reaches out.

Focus Meetings & member results

You'll help drive a culture where members aren't just attending workouts, they're working toward goals:

  • Focus Meetings and goal conversations
  • Progress check-ins and member accountability
  • Celebrating progress and recognizing milestones
  • Transformation stories
  • Connecting members with the right Trainers and resources

Retention

Retention is one of your primary numbers. That includes:

  • Proactive member communication
  • At-risk member outreach
  • Freeze and cancellation conversations
  • Save attempts when appropriate
  • Understanding why members leave
  • Reactivation and member feedback
  • Identifying recurring problems

Our goal isn't to make canceling difficult. Our goal is to create an experience people don't want to leave.

Community & referrals

Happy members are one of the strongest growth tools a gym can have. You will help create:

  • Member recognition and celebrations
  • Community events and challenges
  • Referral activity
  • Member stories and testimonials
  • Stronger relationships between members and the team

You will work closely with our Membership Growth Specialist to turn great member experiences into referrals and new opportunities.

Retail & member experience

You may also help own areas such as:

  • Retail displays, promotions, and new product launches
  • Inventory communication
  • Helping members understand available products
  • Keeping member-facing areas organized and professional

Retail isn't the primary purpose of the role, but it's another way to improve both the member experience and the economics of the location.

12–15camps a week
You are still a Trainer

Highly visible to our members

This role is expected to train approximately 12–15 camps per week, based on scheduling and business needs. That matters. The best person to lead retention and member success shouldn't be hidden behind a computer. They should actually know the people whose membership experience they are responsible for.

Teamwork

How you work with the other leaders

You are part of a three-person full-time management team.

Gym Manager / Trainer

The Gym Manager helps make sure the location, staff, schedule, and overall scorecard are operating correctly. You will work together on:

  • Attrition and overall membership
  • Member issues and member feedback
  • Staffing
  • Operational problems
  • Location performance

Trainer / Membership Growth Specialist

Growth gets people through the door. Member Success helps give them a reason to stay. You will communicate closely about:

  • New members, trial conversions, and onboarding
  • Referrals and reactivation
  • Member stories
  • At-risk members
  • Promotional opportunities
One role grows the front end.
The other strengthens the back end.
Neither works without the other.
During camp hours

Both sides covered, every camp

When you are the scheduled Trainer, you lead the camp. When another leader is training, you may operate the BA / front-floor management seat. That may include:

Every leader participates in operations.

Your scoreboard

How success is measured

Your performance may be measured through metrics including:

  • Attrition
  • Member attendance
  • At-risk-member contacts
  • Cancellation saves
  • Focus Meetings
  • Member engagement
  • Referrals
  • Reactivations
  • Retail results
  • Overall membership

The role is designed to include performance-based incentive opportunities tied to the success of both the location and the areas you help own. When the gym succeeds, we want our strongest people to have the opportunity to succeed financially too.

Who we're looking for

You may be a great fit if you

Empathy matters. But so does accountability. We want someone capable of both.
Why Burn Boot Camp?

We want to develop people

This role provides an opportunity to grow professionally inside an established national fitness brand while working with local franchise ownership that wants to continue building.

Our goal is not just to fill schedules. We want to develop people. If Flowood succeeds and our organization continues expanding, we want our strongest team members to have the opportunity to grow with us. Future opportunities could include:

Those opportunities are not promised simply because someone stays employed for a certain amount of time. They come from helping create successful businesses.

Help us build something successful, and create the possibility of building something bigger together.
The simple version

Your job is to:

Keep It.

If you believe the relationships inside a gym matter just as much as the workouts, this may be the role for you.
