Location:

St. Petersburg, FL

We are looking to bring on a part‑time experienced and passionate strength coach / personal trainer with a background in rehabilitation to join our team of fitness professionals. This person must align with our core values, have a passion for helping others, and want to contribute significantly to a growing business.

Made Possible Personal Training (MPPT) is a thriving personal training studio in Saint Petersburg, Florida founded in 2017. Our team of four coaches has a combined experience of over 30 years in the industry, including rehabilitation clinics, pro‑sports, college sport, commercial gyms, and clinical settings. We specialize in post‑rehabilitation fitness and quality‑of‑life clients. MPPT’s mission is to empower the people in our community to lead healthier and happier lives through personalized fitness solutions, guidance, education, and encouragement.

You should be a learner, self‑starter, high‑energy motivator, educator, and community builder. This is a small team, so you must embody our core values in daily work. You’ll have a “roll‑up‑your‑sleeves” mentality and an ownership mindset. Our coaches do not have to sell; programming is handled by the head coach for the first year.
