Description

Center Sales Director

The Opportunity

This isn’t your typical management role. As a Center Sales Director at EWC Growth, you’ll lead the business, develop a winning team, and create a guest experience that is elevated and unique to each guest.

You’ll own the day-to-day success of your center—from sales and team performance to talent development and operations. As the senior leader on-site, you’ll set the energy, establish expectations, celebrate wins, and coach your team to reach the next level.

If you’re a competitive, people-first leader who loves developing talent, driving results, and building a high-performance culture, this could be your next big move.

Your Earning Potential

Great leadership should be rewarded.

Our Center Sales Directors earn an average of $80,000–$95,000 annually, with top performers earning even more through uncapped earning potential.

Commissions are paid monthly, so when your center performs, you see the impact.

What You’ll Own

Drive the Business

You won’t just manage the center—you’ll own its performance.

• Drive service sales, retail sales, Wax Passes, and future bookings
• Own center KPIs, revenue goals, and performance metrics
• Analyze results and turn insights into action
• Grass-roots marketing: build local partnerships through events so you can add new guests to your network
• Coach associates on behaviors that drive stronger sales performance + elevated guest experience
• Execute local marketing and community engagement initiatives that grow the business

Create an Exceptional Guest Experience

You’ll set the standard for what great service looks and feels like.

• Champion a consistently exceptional guest experience
• Coach associates on creating meaningful guest connections
• Step in confidently to resolve escalated guest concerns
• Support the front desk during high-volume periods and lead by example
• Ensure every interaction reflects brand standards

Build & Lead a Winning Team

Your people are the heart of the business. You’ll create a team that’s engaged, accountable, and excited to win together.

• Recruit, hire, train, and retain high-performing associates
• Coach your team to strengthen sales, service, and leadership skills
• Deliver regular feedback and performance conversations
• Recognize wins while creating accountability around opportunities
• Build a positive, high-energy culture where people want to perform and grow

Run a Best-in-Class Operation

Behind every great guest experience is a center that runs exceptionally well.

• Build effective associate schedules while managing labor targets
• Oversee timekeeping, payroll, deposits, and other daily administrative functions
• Maintain compliance with training, licensing, HR, and operational requirements
• Manage inventory, product ordering, and payment/EFT processes
• Keep the center organized, efficient, and ready to perform every day

What Success Looks Like

The strongest Center Sales Directors are more than managers. They’re coaches, business owners, culture builders, and sales leaders.

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Love developing people and watching them succeed
• Are energized by goals, metrics, and healthy competition
• Know how to coach sales without losing sight of the guest experience
• Lead with confidence, accountability, and positive energy
• Can move seamlessly between strategy and rolling up your sleeves
• Stay organized and decisive in a fast-paced environment
• Take ownership of results and constantly look for ways to improve
