We're hiring fitness instructors and personal trainers. Love your rec job! Find out more.

Safety is our top priority. As the global COVID-19 pandemic evolves and the Omicron variant spreads quickly across Ontario and Canada, the City of Vaughan continues to work with all levels of government to keep the community safe.

UPDATED JANUARY 12: Vaughan remains vigilant in the fight against COVID-19. The City of Vaughan has moved into Step 2 of the Province of Ontario’s Roadmap to Reopening. All City of Vaughan community centres and the City Playhouse Theatre remain closed to the public until further notice.

In-person winter recreation programs and swim lessons continue to be postponed. Planning for a modified, condensed winter session – to start soon after provincial restrictions are lifted – is underway. Details will be shared as more information becomes available.

Personal trainers & fitness instructors: want to get your (sneaker) foot in the fitness door?
Does a close-knit culture, flexible schedule (read: work-life balance) and fitness membership discount (naturally) sound like a good gig? We think so.

If being motivational is your motto and you have energy to spare, we want you to help us (and our members) reach our #fitnessgoals. We’re looking for personal trainers and a variety of specialty instructors (zumba, yoga, HIIT) to teach group fitness classes.

With 6 fitness centres across Vaughan open 7 days a week (early morning to night) you can choose a work location and shift that’s convenient for you. You’ll make friends and have fun, all while doing feel-good work that makes a difference in your community.

Wonder what it’s like to love your job? Watch our video! Go behind the scenes and find out from our rec team what it’s like to work at a Vaughan community centre!
