The Vibe at Den 1880
Den 1880 isn’t your average office; it’s a vibrant coworking ecosystem where productivity meets wellness. We believe that workspace and wellness should blend seamlessly, which is why we offer a premium, members-only private gym. We are looking for an energetic, professional, and self-motivated Certified Personal Trainer to not only train our members but to help maintain the fitness space and integrate it into our community culture.

The Role
You will be the face of health at Den 1880, helping busy professionals, entrepreneurs, and creatives reach their fitness goals while ensuring our private facility remains a top-tier environment.

Key Responsibilities
1. Personal Training & Programming

  • Conduct 1-on-1 and/or small group training sessions tailored to the specific goals of Den 1880 members.

  • Perform initial fitness assessments, goal-setting consultations, and progress tracking.

  • Have expert knowledge of the training equipment offered in Den 1880’s facility. 

2. Facility Management

  • Ensure the gym equipment is always "reset" with weights racked, mats cleaned, equipment organized and assist managers with other jobs such as towel service, recovery room maintenance, etc. 

  • Monitor the overall "vibe" of the space, including music levels, lighting, and general cleanliness.

3. Community Engagement

  • Be a visible, friendly presence within the Den 1880 gym and workspaces.

  • Foster a welcoming, inclusive, and high-energy atmosphere.

  • Lead tours of the fitness suite and provide safety orientations for new members.

What You Bring to the Table

  • Certified Personal Trainer (CPT): Current certification through a recognized body (e.g., CanFitPro, NSCA, NASM, ACSM).

  • Emergency Preparedness: Valid CPR (Level C) and First Aid certification is a non-negotiable requirement.

  • Experience: Minimum 1–2 years of experience in personal training or gym management.

  • Professional Presence: You are professional, punctual, and possess excellent communication skills. 

  • Self-Starter Mentality: Since this is a private, members-only space, you’ll need to be comfortable working independently and taking initiative without constant supervision.

Perks

  • Work in a functional and energetic coworking space in the heart of Uptown Waterloo.

  • Access to a high-end, private facility without the "big box gym" crowds.

  • Access to premium recovery rooms (Sauna, Cold Plunge, Hot Tub, etc.).
