About Definition Gyms Definition Gyms is an independent premium gym brand based in Tonbridge, Kent.
Serious training environment, dark industrial spaces, and a member community that turns up.
Our standard is simple: by any means necessary.
Site One is established and trading well.
Site Two is in motion.
The owner is stepping out of day-to-day operations for good and will keep exactly two things: finding and funding new sites, and guarding the brand.
Everything else becomes yours.
The role You take full operational control.
Every site, every team member and every function reports to you.
Your relationship with the owner is board-level: monthly numbers, quarterly strategy.
No daily involvement, no second-guessing, no running ideas up a flagpole.
You start in Tonbridge.
The first job is to embed in the business and its culture, then systemise and stabilise Site One until it runs to standard without the owner in the building — and that work becomes the playbook for everything that follows.
Site Two comes quickly after: our next location will be within 45 minutes to an hour of Tonbridge in any direction, and you will lead it end to end.
Twelve months in, success looks like this: Site One systemised and running to standard without a minute of the owner's time, Site Two open and trading, a general manager bench strong enough to staff the next opening, and a business that improved while the owner was out of the country.
