Position: Wellness Navigator/ CBT

Fitometry Health Club is where innovation meets fitness. We combine state-of-the-art technology with a high-energy culture to deliver a frictionless, performance-driven member experience. We’re seeking a Wellness Navigator to guide, support, and drive meaningful change throughout each member’s fitness journey.

Role Overview

The Wellness Navigator is the psychological and behavioral architect of a member’s health journey. This role serves as the primary point of contact for members bridging physical training with sustainable habit formation. Using evidence-based principles from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing, the Wellness Navigator helps members understand the why behind their behaviors and drives consistent, long‑term adherence to wellness goals.

This is not a personal training role. The Wellness Navigator focuses on mindset, accountability, lifestyle execution, and behavioral change using a structured, data-driven, and “tough-love” coaching approach. By addressing the psychological and behavioral barriers that prevent consistency, this role ensures that fitness becomes a sustainable lifestyle—not a short‑term effort.

Core Responsibilities
  • Personalized Accountability:
    Conduct weekly check‑ins to review progress, analyze setbacks, and reinforce the obligation to act.
  • Behavioral Auditing:
    Identify counterproductive habits (e.g., poor sleep, high stress, or lack of discipline) and work with members to replace them with sustainable high‑performance routines.
  • Outcome‑Driven Goal Setting:
    Help members define measurable "SMART" goals and create a detailed roadmap for achieving them, separate from their physical exercise plan.
  • Tough Love Feedback:
    Provide objective, direct, and sometimes challenging feedback when members falter, ensuring they remain focused on their long‑term intentions.
  • Knowledge‑to‑Practice Bridge:
    Educate members on nutrition, recovery, and mindset principles, ensuring they know how to apply this information outside the gym walls.
  • Progress Tracking:
    Use data and performance metrics to evaluate the effectiveness of the member's lifestyle strategy, making aggressive adjustments when needed.
  • Education and awareness:
    The publishing and issuance of best practices, tips and guidance to our member base and general audience.
Skills & Experience
  • High proficiency in Motivational Interviewing and CBT‑based coaching techniques.
  • Strong background or experience in psychology, counseling, social work, or behavior management.
  • Working knowledge of metabolic health and the lifestyle implications of modern obesity medications.
  • Strong communication, interpersonal, and coaching presence.
  • Exceptional goal‑setting, action‑planning, and progress‑tracking abilities.
Persona & Coaching Style
  • Firm, confident, and solution‑driven coaching style.
  • Comfortable delivering direct, objective feedback.
  • Able to hold members to a high standard of personal responsibility while remaining supportive and results‑focused.
  • Recovery‑first mindset, integrating sleep, stress management, and emotional regulation into all wellness strategies.
Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, Behavioral Science, Social Work, or a related field preferred.
  • Preferred certifications include:
    • National Board‑Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBHWC)
    • ACE Behavior Change Specialist
    • Other recognized Behavioral Change or Wellness Coaching certifications
