People are at the heart of PureGym – it is our team that brings our facilities to life. The People function at PureGym is built around partnering, leadership and support for our incredible employees.

Talent Attraction is the first pillar of the employee journey, and recruitment of the best possible people is something we are passionate about. Searching hard for people to add to our culture is an activity we own from the centre. Our Human Resources professionals are responsible for supporting across all business areas. From junior to senior roles, we partner on proactive people leadership and growth and respond to challenges when they arise. We believe in helping people have the best career experience possible while on their journey with us and approach every situation with that ethos in mind. People Development is a ‘virtual first’ team that makes high-quality content available 24/7 to all staff, with bespoke topics covered and internal transition programmes enabling structured internal progression within the business.

We keep a focus on the experience of working with us. This includes our diversity strategy, engagement programme and exciting events throughout the year. The People function is a valued, quality, and critical part of the business support. We work at an incredible speed; learn from interactions and projects we work on and make sure we have some fun along the journey.

Operations is the heart of what PureGym offers – exceptional member experience to over 1 million members across our 300+ gyms (and growing!) 24/7/365. We define and deliver the PureGym experience consistently and to a high standard day in and day out. We are the front-line team that never stands still, driving continuous improvement to ensure we stay ahead. 

Central Operations groups into four main areas:

• The people and processes that define our core operating model, ensuring that the ‘PureGym experience’ feels the same from Inverness to Plymouth and everywhere in between. From our supportive team of Managers and Fitness Coaches on hand to welcome existing and new members, to our industry-leading Group Fitness offering, and Personal Trainers to support our members reach their goals
• Design, installation, and maintenance of the physical infrastructure in our gyms – everything that you can see and touch, from the gym equipment and layout to safety mitigations and CCTV, keeping everybody safe in our gyms
• Delivery of the ‘extras’ – vending machines to massage chairs, sports water to body composition machines. If you see it, it’s ops
• Operational improvement projects to drive efficiencies and innovate the way we do things – be it retendering multimillion-pound contracts or implementing new systems to drive more efficient ways of working. We are not afraid to try new things, fail sometimes, and learn fast. We are deep in the detail and strive for continuous improvement, learning from the information and data to hand. We thrive on working at pace in an ever-changing environment

Safety and compliance sit at the centre of what we do, and the team upholds our industry-leading TrainSafe Commitment – our propriety safety framework centering around physical safety and security, cleanliness & hygiene, and the welcoming, judgement-free treatment of everyone. 

Central Operations partners closely with the Gym Operations leadership team, who ensure we meet our high-quality service standards, driving best practices across all gyms, managing and supporting our Gym Management and Fitness Teams to be the best they can be. 

If you want to be part of an exciting front-line team that develops industry-leading processes and procedures and delivers exceptional member experiences then look no further!

PureGym’s Commercial team sits at the heart of decision-making for the Group, working in close partnership with all areas of the business to make improvements for both PureGym and for our members. The core functions of the Commercial team are Revenue Management, Member Feedback, and Insight and Analytics; in combination, these functions set best practices in Pricing, Product Development, Member Experience and Competitor Strategy, and ensure we are being data-led in every decision we make.

We are a small and highly collaborative function, with team members sitting in the UK, Denmark, and Switzerland; as a geographically diverse team, we are in constant communication with each other, leveraging the scale and breadth of our business to find synergies and share learnings across our operating markets.

We are obsessed with data; we combine our market-leading analytics capabilities with a specialised and highly skilled team to continually improve and optimise our proposition and outperform our competition. Our team has a wide range of business and consulting experience, which allows us to look outside the ‘four walls’ of the fitness industry, and drive PureGym to be more innovative as we scale up. We are always asking ‘why’ – challenging the status quo – we are obsessed with driving the business forwards. We love to be challenged as a team, and we are known for being go-to thought partners for stakeholders who are looking for fresh ideas.

In our team you will need to be highly creative, collaborative, and data-focused; you will need to be able to see the big picture, and then dive in and drive the business towards it. We are a driven and ambitious group of individuals, which makes Team Commercial a fun and rewarding place to work.
