Coach

The role

You run the sessions and set the tone for the week. Strength, HIIT, mobility, a long run with a view, all scaled up or down so every guest gets a proper session, whatever their fitness level or injury history.

What you'll be doing

  • →Plan and lead two or three group sessions a day: strength, HIIT, mobility, whatever the week needs.
  • →Scale every session up or down for each guest's fitness level, and adapt around injuries, so the whole group trains together.
  • →Run the warm-ups, cool-downs and mobility so the whole group moves well all week.
  • →Be around, not just at the 7:30. Breakfast, the pool, the terrace at sundown. That is where the crew gets built.
  • →Join the adventure days with the group.
  • →Keep the kit and training spaces ready before the group arrives.

What you'll bring

  • ✓A PT qualification and 3+ years leading group sessions.
  • ✓A functional or hybrid training background.
  • ✓Confidence coaching groups of 12 to 16.
  • ✓A warm, approachable style. Someone guests want to train with at 7:30 and eat dinner with at 7:30pm.
  • ✓Happy training outdoors, whatever the weather decides.

Bonus points

Not essential, but we will get excited.

  • ★HYROX or CrossFit competition experience.

Meet the crew

From coaches who've done it

  • "Coaching a beach session at sunrise, then swimming with the group before breakfast. It stopped feeling like a shift somewhere around day two."

    Clementina

    Clementina

    Coach · Santa Teresa, Zakynthos

  • "One session can have someone brand new to training, someone who trains six days a week and someone working around a bad knee. Learning to coach them all at once made me a better PT back home."

    Rachelle

    Rachelle

    Coach · Zakynthos, Ibiza

  • "I was nervous about the Academy. By the end I knew exactly how a Salt Week runs and who I would be working with."

    Liv

    Liv

    Coach · Caribbean, Ibiza

  • "The Host handles logistics, the chef handles food. You just coach and hang out with people who want to be there."
