About The Position

The JumpBunch coach is essential to our success as an organization. As the most visible aspect of the program, the coach represents what customers perceive our brand to be. Listed below are the duties assigned to the JumpBunch coach and requirements to successfully perform those duties. JumpBunch is a non-competitive introduction to sports and fitness. With over 70 different activities to choose from, children experience something new each week! Our goal is to use the natural curiosity and energy in children as a bridge to exploring many different ways to be healthy and have fun. Most activities give each child their own unique piece of equipment that promotes exploration and direct engagement. Children need consistency but naturally seek new experiences too. Our program provides them a weekly routine filled with both. We’ve been called “pee wee P.E.”, and it’s a good fit given that we truly educate kids each week on new ways to stay physically active…all while having pure fun! This franchise is independently owned and operated by a franchisee. Your application will go directly to the franchisee, and all hiring decisions will be made by the management of this franchisee.
