We are expanding in Hong Kong and seeking a commercially driven, KPI-oriented Studio Sales & Growth Manager to lead revenue generation, client acquisition, student enrolment, and instructor team development.

This is not a passive operations role.

We are looking for someone who thinks in numbers, targets, conversions, and growth — someone who understands that a studio thrives on sales performance, client retention, instructor engagement, and the strength of its training pipeline.

This role requires both commercial sharpness and confident leadership.

Role Overview

The Studio Sales & Growth Manager is responsible for:

Driving client package sales Reactivating inactive clients Converting trials into long-term clients Recruiting students into certification courses Growing the apprentice instructor pipeline Leading, developing, and inspiring a team of Pilates instructors Supporting studio expansion initiatives

Build strong professional relationships with instructors Coach instructors on client conversion, retention, and communication Upskill instructors in sales confidence and client journey awareness Motivate performance while maintaining a positive team culture Lead regular development discussions and performance reviews Create structured but collaborative accountability Support instructors through skill development and progression Identify and nurture high-performing instructors into leadership pathways

You will understand:

The client journey — from first enquiry to long-term retention The instructor journey — from apprentice to skilled senior instructor

You must be confident leading performance without creating a culture of resistance.

While sales is the priority, you will also:

Oversee daily administrative operations Monitor instructor KPIs (retention, renewal rates, client conversions) Ensure smooth client handovers during instructor leave or resignations Train and supervise admin staff Maintain SOPs and operational systems Step into reception coverage when required

You are responsible for ensuring commercial and operational alignment.

Growth does not happen solely inside the studio.

You will:

Represent OptionsPilates within the Hong Kong wellness community Identify partnership and brand-building opportunities Engage in local development activities Build meaningful relationships outside the studio Promote our services confidently in external settings Support expansion initiatives and new studio development

You must be comfortable being the commercial and cultural face of the studio.
