Employment Challenges
This month we received a feedback form saying: “Surely it can’t be that
hard to find female personal trainers!” The answer is “YES!”
Firstly, our commitment to our members and our Team is to only employ
quality people. We want to provide you the best people available, so we
don’t settle for second best. We have a tough interview process to
ensure we get great people and they also respect the job owing to the
challenges they faced to get the job.
And for nearly 8 months we have been searching for quality personal
trainers. We would love to hire a female personal trainer but simply
have not had any apply. In fact last month, we were about to offer the
position to 2 ladies, but one stayed with her old employer and the other
didn’t show up for her final interview.
So we are as frustrated as you! Nevertheless, we continue to advertise
and interview! But if you know anyone who would be interested in
changing careers or joining our Team, the current positions vacant at
the club are:
- Personal Trainers
- Gym floor instructors
- Massage therapist
- Full time front desk leader

Member Update
This month you can expect Toni to grab you on your visit to the Club.
We want to check that we have all your current information – phone,
email and address. We are also going to take a quick picture for our
records.
All pain free but it will help us communicate better with you!

Member of the Month - Mario
This month’s Member of the Month is Mario Giuliani.
Mario was the winner because he is always polite and happy and comes
in - sometimes even twice a day! He did really well in the Active
Olympics and has reached many of his personal goals. He is very
dedicated and is a pleasure to be around.
Congratulations Mario.

This
about Duncan:
I am a proud kiwi! But moved permanently to Sydney after meeting my
Aussie fiancé while travelling overseas in Europe.
I have always been interested in health & fitness but my career began
in 2000.
I was attracted to Active Health Club for two reasons – firstly, it
provides the opportunity to grow and develop further; and secondly, the
culture is something that is hard to find in other clubs.
The people at Active are great! I work with a great bunch of Team
mates and the members make it enjoyable to come to work each day!
If we haven’t yet met be sure to come over and say hi … I’d love to
meet you!
