Head Coach - Jiu Jitsu

Head Coach — SBG Boynton Beach (Brazilian Jiu‑Jitsu)

📍 Boynton Beach, Florida | Full-Time | On‑Site

🚀 Ground‑floor opportunity to build Florida’s first SBG Jiu‑Jitsu academy

SBG Boynton Beach is launching the first SBG Jiu‑Jitsu gym in Florida, and we’re looking for a high‑level Head Coach who wants more than just a coaching job — someone hungry to help build a world‑class academy, culture, and community from day one.

Straight Blast Gym is one of the most respected teams in the world, producing elite fighters and champions including Conor McGregor, as well as many top MMA and BJJ athletes globally. Despite the global reputation, SBG has little presence in Florida, making this a rare opportunity to be part of something that can scale into multiple locations.

If you’ve ever wanted to be the coach who builds a gym from the ground up — and be rewarded like an owner — this is your shot.

• Run high‑level adult and youth BJJ programs
• Develop structured class plans and curriculum (all levels)
• Build a strong culture of discipline, humility, consistency, and community
• Coach for competition and performance (as applicable)
• Help recruit and mentor assistant coaches
• Support new student onboarding and retention
• Collaborate with ownership on growth strategy, marketing initiatives, and member experience
• Help establish systems and standards that can scale into a second location

This role is for someone who is:

• Proven coach with experience leading programs and managing classes
• Culture‑builder — you care deeply about people and community
• Professional, disciplined, and passionate about developing students
• Comfortable with responsibility and ownership‑level execution
• Hungry to grow — and wants to be part of building something big

• Previous Head Coach / Lead Coach experience
• Strong technical foundation and ability to teach beginners to advanced
• Competition coaching experience is a plus (BJJ and/or MMA)
• Experience building or scaling a gym program is a major plus

We’re structuring this as a true leadership opportunity:

• Competitive base salary
• Performance incentives based on gym growth and retention
• Sales commission for new student conversions
• Equity and profit‑sharing opportunity for the right leader

This is a unique opportunity to be treated like a builder — not just a coach.

• Ground floor: build the first SBG academy in Florida
• Strong ownership support and investment behind the gym
• High growth market with no SBG presence
• Potential to build into multiple locations
• You’ll have the chance to establish a legacy gym and build your own pipeline
