Chief Executive Officer Job Posting  

January 3, 2022

Core SRQ is excited to announce that we are seeking a new Chief Executive Officer to lead our growing organization. Our organization is much more than gyms - we are a community center where people meet and form new and lasting relationships.

As of March 2020, Core SRQ embraces a new mission - to inspire a healthier community through innovative wellness and education programs for people of all backgrounds.

Our goal is to make Sarasota stronger by helping people of all backgrounds to come together to build stronger individuals, families, and the Sarasota Community. Together, we work to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to reach their full potential with dignity at Core SRQ.  Our commitment to inclusion and diversity creates better individuals, a better community and a better world.

Our programs reflect the diversity of our membership and our community – from our wide range of fitness classes for all ages and levels, to adult Saturday night dances; tennis, racquetball and pickleball; swimming classes for all levels and ages; basketball leagues; Parkinson’s cycling; virtual and “live” programming; afterschool care; childcare while you work out; our annually sold out “School’s Out” summer camp and swim camps; lifeguard, water safety, first aid certification and training; our partnerships with other non-profits; programs for people with disabilities; and so much more. Meet your friends for a friendly game of bridge, or enjoy our swimming pool, steam room and hot tub facilities.

Our employees encompass all generations, including providing youths with their “first jobs”, embracing community involvement and public service as a lifelong skill.

Our ideal candidate has 10-15 years of leadership experience, preferably in a multi-site organization; a passion for health, wellness and making an impact on a community of diverse people; has a close connection with the Sarasota community, either currently or in the recent past; is hands on, operational and strategic; has experience cultivating and engaging donors, and implementing a fundraising plan; and is someone who has a sense of humor, likes to have fun and will embrace and enjoy our members.

If this sounds like you, please consider applying:

Location of position: Your office will be in our Sarasota Branch on Bahia Vista but expect to spend time at our Palmer Ranch Branch as well. More importantly, this is an external facing position, and you will spend significant time networking in the community.

Please note this is a full-time position, and non-local candidates will be expected to relocate.

Salary and benefits: Minimum starting salary of $105,000.  Full benefits plan included.  

To apply, please submit:

  • Cover Letter
  • Resume/CV
  • Three References
