We’re Looking For Our Next Coach

Coaching Excellence

We want to talk with passionate Coaches looking to develop themselves personally and professionally to become the best Coach possible.

 
 

About Us

At Māia, our mission is simple: to use CrossFit and an unparalleled sense of community to elevate the health, well-being, and fitness of Wellington. Everything we do is driven by our CORE values: Courage (Māia), Whānau, Health & Fitness, and Value. We’re looking for coaches who live and breathe these values and want to be part of something meaningful.

Over the last three years, our community has grown exponentially. Now, we’re ready to welcome another high-calibre coach to support that growth and help us deliver an exceptional experience to every member who walks through our doors.

Who We’re Looking For:

  • At least 12 months of CrossFit training experience

  • A growth mindset — not just comfortable with feedback, but actively seeking it to become the best coach you can be

  • Preferred: 12+ months coaching CrossFit or other group fitness

  • Preferred: PT or small group experience (you know how to tailor a cue for one person while still running a sharp, well-paced class of 16 — or you're eager to learn)

  • Preferred: CrossFit Level 1 or higher (other fitness/S&C qualifications welcome)

  • A walk-the-talk role model — you know your members by name, you demo with great form, run classes on time, and leave the gym better than you found it

  • NZ working rights and a current First Aid/CPR cert (or willingness to obtain one)

What You’ll Do

  • Coach 2–5 classes per week, with the potential for more

  • Deliver world-class briefings, demos, and movement corrections that reflect Māia’s standards

  • Create a safe, fun, and inclusive training space — the best 60 minutes of someone’s day

  • Role-model the Māia way and set the tone for our community and coaching culture

What You’ll Get

  • Paid development budget (courses, seminars, CrossFit certs)

  • Competitive pay

  • Ongoing mentorship from a seasoned, values-driven team

  • A whānau-centred workplace where your ideas, energy, and initiative help shape the future of our box
