Ready to Build Something of Your Own? What if you could help shape a gymnastics program from the ground up—your ideas, your standards, your impact?
NPGA is looking for a passionate coach and emerging leader to help us build what comes next.
This is more than a coaching position.
We’re looking for someone who wants to lead our competitive program and become a key day-to-day leader within the gym—the person who is present, engaged, sees what needs to be done, supports our coaches, and helps make the entire gym run better.
You don’t need to already be a Head Coach to apply. If you’re an experienced coach who is ready to take the next step in your career, we want to hear from you.
This is your chance to build—not just coach.
The Opportunity Location: Fort St. John, BC Position: Full-time, Permanent Start Date: Immediate — we are willing to wait until the end of the season for the right person, but please reach out now. Salary: Competitive salary and benefits commensurate with experience
You’ll work closely with the Executive Director as a key leader within NPGA, with responsibility for the success of our competitive programs while also helping oversee the day-to-day operation and culture of the gym.
This is a hands-on role. We’re looking for someone who is comfortable coaching, leading, problem-solving, supporting others, and stepping in wherever they are needed.

Help Shape What Comes Next We are looking for someone who sees opportunities rather than just tasks. You’ll have the opportunity to contribute ideas, improve systems, develop coaches, strengthen programs, and help shape the future direction of NPGA. This role can grow with the right person and provides a pathway toward a Head Coach / senior leadership position for someone who demonstrates the skills, initiative, and leadership to take on greater responsibility.

We’re less focused on the title you currently hold and more interested in what you’re capable of becoming.
If you’re currently a strong competitive coach, assistant head coach, program lead, or coach who is ready for a bigger leadership opportunity, we encourage you to apply.
