Program Director
Balanced Martial Arts — Eastchester, NY
Most days at Balanced Martial Arts come down to small moments. A parent worried about their kid's focus. A new family trying to figure out if this place is right for them. We need a Program Director for those moments.
Balanced Martial Arts has been serving Eastchester and surrounding communities for 25 years. Almost 500 active members. Documented systems for how everything runs. A team of instructors who've been here for years. The right Program Director isn't going to be building any of this from scratch. They're stepping into something that already works, and helping us make it better.
This role fits two kinds of people. An experienced martial arts school Program Director who's hit their ceiling and wants room to grow. Or a strong sales and operations person from outside the industry looking for work that actually matters.
Here's what the Program Director actually does. They make sure every student is understood, informed, and supported. They're the person parents trust. They're the reason a 500-member school still feels like a family.

What We're Looking For
Must-Haves
2+ years of experience in sales, customer service, operations, or a client-facing role
Strong communication and interpersonal skills — especially with parents and kids
Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable owning systems and metrics
Comfortable with technology
Reliable, accountable, and coachable
Nice-to-Haves
Prior management or supervisory experience
Martial arts background or personal training experience
Sales or closing experience
Comfortable with technology (we use Zen Planner and GoHighLevel; we’ll train you)
Compensation
Base salary: $70,000 – $85,000 per year, commensurate with experience.
In addition to base pay, we offer bonuses tied to new student enrollments and program upgrades (Black Belt Club & Leadership Team).
Successful team members typically earn total compensation of $90,000 – $110,000+ when targets are met or exceeded.
Schedule
Our business operates when students and families are available, so evenings and weekends are part of the role. We prioritize a consistent 5-day work week with predictable hours, rather than split or constantly changing schedules. Evenings and one weekend day are a regular part of the role, as these are our highest-impact times for enrollment, student development, and family communication. Schedules are set in advance and remain stable.
