Lead Strength and Conditioning Coach
About the role
D1 Training Westborough is a new facility currently in presales slated to open late this fall. We are seeking a Lead Strength and Conditioning Coach—our Head Coach—to lead, build out, and develop a world-class coaching staff. This is not an entry-level coaching role; it is a leadership position for a coach who can step in on day one and run the floor, command the turf, develop staff, and deliver a world-class training experience to every athlete that walks through the door—from 7-year-old beginners to college-bound and pro-level athletes to 40-year-old parents getting their lives back.
The Lead Strength & Conditioning Coach is responsible for leading the coaching team, delivering exceptional training experiences, and ensuring consistent execution of the D1 Training philosophy. This role also functions as a Personal Training Manager, overseeing coaching staff, driving training quality, and ensuring a high-level member experience. This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll coach athletes, develop staff, and drive performance across the facility with real ownership over building a strong team culture.
