Everlast Gyms is part of Frasers Group, one of the UK's most ambitious retail and fitness businesses.

We're committed to creating world-class fitness environments whilst investing in our people, products and facilities. This is an opportunity to lead a business, develop exceptional talent and make a real impact within a growing national fitness brand.
