WHAT WE OFFER
Full Time Employment
We believe all team members should be paid fairly for the efforts, and spend time focusing on client outcomes, not stressing about making rental payments to a gym.
That’s why all our team members are full time, salaried employees, with sick leave, annual leave and public holiday entitlements. Best of all, no split-shifts 🥳
No Rent to Pay
We don’t believe in the rental model run at commercial gyms. Why? Because stressing about making rental payments isn’t good for the trainer, or the client. Trainers should be focused on delivering the best possible service to their clients, and clients deserve a trainer that’s focused on helping them achieve their goals, not the other way around.
Industry Leading Pay
We want all our trainers to not only just be paid fairly, but be paid well. We will give you all the tools needed to be a successful fitness professional and help you meet the required competencies in order to level up your pay every single quarter.
Real Career Progression
At Dukes, we believe fitness is not just a job, it’s a career. That’s why we’ve mapped out a clear career progression pathway for our team. This allows them to learn the skills they need to help clients, develop and lead teams and ultimately lead facilities.
IMAGINE having an actual career in the fitness industry, where you can help your clients achieve their dreams while at the same time achieving your own.
Imagine coming to a workplace that has a proven framework for professional success. Rather than wasting your own free time and hard earned money on professional development courses that may or may not work, you’re given the exact steps to be one of the lucky few that actually has a high paying career within the fitness industry.
How would it feel to be surrounded by a team that’s not there to compete with you, but instead, lift you up? Would you like to be part of a team that’s been in your exact same position that can give you practical guidance that actually works? Well, here is your chance..
You didn’t get into the fitness industry to work split shifts, pay rent and compete with people who are meant to be your teammates.
The truth is, most fitness businesses don’t take care of the thing that makes them successful in the first place, the team! We have all been there and done it before, and that’s why we decided to take a stand and build a model that works for the whole team.
INDUSTRY LEADING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
All new recruits will be given extensive training in the basics, including:
- Cuing
- Programming
- Client Accountability
- Progress tracking
We are also lucky enough to have some of the fitness industry’s leading educators present to us on a regular basis. Currently we have partnered with JPS Health and Fitness to build our knowledge on all things personal training and team development.
We believe in the constant pursuit of improvement. One of our core values is Better Everyday.
The best part is, we get to apply what we learn immediately – everything we learn is geared towards practical application, not abstract concepts.
If you’re someone that believes in becoming better every day then we want to hear from you!

You’re currently completing Cert IV in Fitness and while this is providing a good foundation, there are still some areas that need to be developed. This role will show you exactly what you need to do in order to become a successful coach, and best of all, we’ll pay you to learn these skills!
Coach

You’ve graduated and are ready to start helping clients achieve amazing results. This is a pivotal point in your career because the skills you learn now will shape your coaching for years to come. We will show you how to go from 0 to 55 sessions per week without the need for split shifts or sacrificing weekends.
Senior Coach
Minimum 3 Years Coaching Experience
You’ve already proven yourself as a succesful coach and now it’s time to take the next step in your career. You’ll still get to coach clients, but you’ll also be working on developing the team around you. This role is the pathway to club management & future business opportunities.

OUR VALUES
Better Everyday
As fitness professionals we are on a constant path of improvement. This means we never rest on the success of yesterday and we’re always striving for better.
Considered Action
We can plan, scrutinise and pontificate all day long, but in the end the only thing that moves the needle is action. Consider options, involve the team, but most importantly, take action.
In It For The Long Haul
Patience, perseverance and discipline are all lessons the gym has taught us. Well, just like muscles, careers take time, effort an intent to grow. We’re investing our time to build our careers.
Enjoy The Process
We spend a huge amount of our lives at work. We also get to wok in an industry we love, with a team that lifts us up. It’s important we take the time to appreciate this and enjoy each moment.
Quarterly team activities
It’s important to celebrate the wins. That’s why every quarter we host events and activities outside the gym so we can have some fun, bond as a team and take some time to reflect on all we’ve achieved over the last few months.
Are you ready to make a real impact in your clients lives, make a real income and build a long and prosperous career in the fitness industry?
We’re always on the lookout for the next fitness superstar. If you are looking for a career within the fitness industry and are already living out the values we hold dear then we want to hear from you! Make your next step in the fitness industry the right one, apply now.
