ONE PLAYGROUND PHILOSOPHY: “GREAT HUMANS”.
We are driven by our core values including “One Team” of “Great Humans” who “Master their Craft” and of course “Do Cool Sh*t!”. We believe that if we take care of our people, they will take care of our members.
People have been the key differentiator to One Playground’s success. Today, we have a team of 450 Great Humans, a Senior Leadership team with an average tenure of 8 years, and being consistently recognised as one of Australia’s best places to work.
Our human centric awards include being rated Top 50 Places to Work in Australia, Employer of Choice Award, AFR Best Places to Work and the ABA100® Winner for Training Excellence. The brand has been named as the best multi modality gym in Australia and the best boutique gym brand in APAC, while being mentioned along the likes of Six Senses hotels and Equinox.
BRAND AMBITION.
At One Playground, we are committed to creating the best gyms, not just the most gyms. The spaces are unique, we invest in curated designs, with luxury finishes and experiential moments.
Our ambition is to create more than a gym. But rather to create an ecosystem of premium lifestyle brands that Inspire Change for our members and our staff.
We do this through changing the gym environment and experience through beautifully curated spaces, quality coaching, experiential classes, premium wellness and community connection. And as we look to the future, we will do this beyond the gym with the One Coach and Destination One (retreat) brands.
The right Executive Assistant will believe in our vision, and have the skills, ambition and energy to bring it to life.
THE ROLE & FOUNDER.
The role of Executive Assistant to the Founder / CEO is to make sure our Founder spends his time on what only he can do, and that nothing he commits to ever gets lost.
Our Founder is hands‑on and operates at a very high output, across a growing portfolio of new locations, multiple brands, major projects and a team of hundreds. That creates a constant stream of decisions, commitments and follow‑ups. You’ll be the person who captures every one of them, keeps them moving and makes sure they close.
You’ll own his calendar, inbox and priorities, run the commitment register across the leadership team,
prepare the documents and presentations that carry our brand, and get out into our clubs to keep people and product standards where they should be.
The founder has 3 young children and a busy schedule, both inside and outside of work. As trust builds, you’ll become his right hand across both skilled and personal matters, freeing him to focus on his passions: design, brand, marketing and people, while making sure he gets home in time for dinner and prioritises his personal health and fitness.
This isn’t a role for someone who wants to quietly manage a diary. It’s for a career EA with very high standards, the confidence to chase a CEO for an overdue action, and the judgement to know what matters most today.
If you love being the person who makes everything work, and want to help make our leadership team and support office the world’s best place to work, this is your next move.
