Senior Strategist, Pilates & Strength GTM

Overview

iFIT’s vision is to create the world's most holistic health and fitness platform, integrating all elements of health - physical fitness, mental health, nutrition and active recovery - into a seamless interactive experience. Nordic Track is expanding beyond traditional cardio into Pilates and Strength, a category that blends performance, recovery, precision movement, and premium design. This role exists to help define, build, and launch that category.

The Senior Strategist, Pilates & Strength GTM will own the positioning, messaging, and launch strategy for this portfolio. This role requires building clarity where no established playbook exists and translating early product vision into compelling, commercially effective go-to-market plans. You will partner closely with Product, Creative, Sales, Retail, Media, and Analytics teams while reporting to the Director, Nordic Track Brand and Product Marketing (GTM).
