Fitt Talent Partners is a specialized recruitment firm for top health and wellness companies.

We’re filling this role for a client, an innovative wellness company redefining hospitality through a first-of-its-kind social wellness club experience. Located in SoHo, this is an opportunity to lead one of the brand’s flagship locations.

About the Company

We are the world’s first social wellness club, redefining how people socialize through self-care. We believe feeling your best should be a shared experience, not a solitary one.

Our clubs combine evidence-based wellness therapies, self-care practices, hospitality, and beautifully designed spaces to create experiences that help people leave feeling better than when they arrived.

Every interaction matters. Every conversation shapes the guest experience. Every team member helps define our brand.

We are looking for leaders who naturally create connection, anticipate needs before they are spoken, and genuinely care about helping others feel their best.

The Opportunity

As the General Manager, you are the leader of the club and the ultimate owner of the club experience. You are responsible for leading the team, protecting the guest and member experience, driving revenue growth, and ensuring the club operates with excellence every day.

This is not a back-office management role. You are expected to be highly visible on the floor, engaged with the team, connected to members, and deeply invested in the energy, standards, and performance of the club.

You are equal parts hospitality leader, wellness ambassador, business operator, membership driver, and culture carrier. You set the tone for how the team welcomes guests, leads tours, educates members, recommends memberships and packages, and creates personalized self-care experiences within their training and scope.

You understand that exceptional hospitality is not simply answering questions. It is anticipating needs, making people feel genuinely seen, holding the team to a high standard, and creating moments guests remember long after they leave.

Whether you are coaching a leader, resolving a member concern, reviewing the P&L, leading a team huddle, building a local partnership, preparing the club for a busy day, or stepping onto the floor to support the team, your goal is always the same:

Leave every guest, member, and team member better than you found them.
