ONE PLAYGROUND ORIGIN Starting from humble beginnings as a small bootcamp in Surry Hills, today, we are a national brand on a mission to “Inspire Change” in the Global Fitness Industry. In March 2023, Fitness Playground became One Playground. This change represents our move beyond just fitness, and aesthetics, to become an all-encompassing Playground for all things health and fitness. We’re in the midst of our biggest growth phase yet, 2025 saw the successful launch of three new Super Boutique clubs in Haymarket, Merrylands, and North Sydney, with even more exciting openings already on the horizon for early 2026. ONE PLAYGROUND PHILOSOPHY We believe that Gyms must get better at taking care of their members. Our philosophy is “If we take care of our staff, they will take care of our members”. This philosophy has been a critical driver for the growth of One Playground and our people over the past 11 years. It has led us to grow to a team of over 400 across four locations, and we are proud to be consistently recognised as one of Australia’s best places to work. Our accolades include being rated Top 50 Places to Work in Australia, 2019 & 2020 Employer of Choice Award, AFR Best Places to Work 2021, FITSummit Boutique of the Year 2022 and 2023 and 2024 ABA100® Winner for Training Excellence. Over the next 18 months, the company will open 6 new locations which will provide an unprecedented opportunity to join a dynamic growing business, and we want “Great Humans” to join us on this journey. WHAT ARE WE? At One Playground, we are committed to creating the best gyms, not the most gyms. We are a new kind of gym, a ‘super-boutique’, giving members complete access to a ‘one-stop-shop’ of fitness and wellness. Our mission is to defy expectations by offering award-winning designs, fostering connected communities, providing a wide range of classes, and employing exceptional individuals who are passionate about what they do. Alongside our purpose to “Inspire Change”, One Playground has a strong set of 6 core values. We are “One Team”, of “Great Humans”, who get “Better Every Day”, working on “Mastering Our Craft”, so we can “Design the Future” and, most importantly, “Do Cool Sh*t!” If this sounds like a workplace culture that resonates with you, we would love you to apply to become part of the team.
