OPEN OUR NEWEST NEW YORK STUDIO

This fall, FACEGYM opens the doors to its newest studio in Tribeca, and we're looking for the leader to make it happen. This is a founding role.

• Confidently manage and resolve client complaints and challenges, in studio and over the phone.
• Keep building the team's knowledge of skincare, products and workouts so expertise shows in every interaction.
• Run a tight operation: Manage studio inventory so you're always stocked with the products and tools needed for the full range of workouts.
• Uphold health and safety guidelines, including the sterilization and storage of all equipment, and keep the studio and workstations clean and presentable.
• Stay proficient in the Zenoti system for accurate bookings, reporting and team usage, and operate point of sale systems, card machines and tills efficiently.
• Complete and check all required studio and team paperwork, uphold grooming and hygiene standards across the team, and support other locations where the wider business needs you.
