We are not a perfect company and we don’t pretend to be. We work very hard and we have a lot of fun. The outcome is that you get a career that you enjoy, where your ideas are heard, and you are empowered, invested in, and cared about as a person, not just a number on a payroll chart. An added bonus is that you will directly and sometimes indirectly change our members’ lives.

Working at Elevate is different. We are an experience-first company that uses fitness to open that doorway. Our work is less about treadmills and dumbbells and is instead about building meaningful relationships and taking care of people. Think People first, gym second.

The Fitness Industry is exciting and competitive and Elevate Fitness is uniquely positioned within it. Our concept is based on value, NOT sales. In fact, you won’t find a single employee with the word sales in their title. Let that sink in and now take a big exhale. We won’t ask you to haggle, but we will expect you to smile and lead with Kindness and Compassion. ALWAYS.

We CAN make a change together. As a member of the Elevate team, we want you to feel supported, invested in, challenged, and valued. Our promise to our current and future employees is to actively fight toward being a sanctuary that's free from tokenism, microaggressions, or any other form of racism or discrimination. We have blind spots and are committed to expanding our vision. There is always more work to be done, not only within Elevate Fitness but also in our communities. We promise to strive to be the blueprint of what the world should be and will give every employee the freedom to be passionate, the freedom to be heard, and the freedom to be proud of who they are. We choose this not because it is the law but because diversity, equity, and inclusion for ALL are what we stand for.

We are fired up to embark on this journey with you. Our hope is that we can add as much value to your life as we know you will in the lives of our members.

Our employees make us who we are and to be the best, we need the best!
