CoverMe Fitness staff management app goes live in Australia

Aiming to connect educated and qualified fitness professionals with local clubs and studios, CoverMe Fitness, the on-demand management and cover solution app for fitness professionals, is set to go live in Australia.

Designed exclusively for the fitness industry by fitness people, the CoverMe app is revolutionizing studio management by helping clubs manage and reward their teams, as well as scout for fresh talent, ensuring high-quality classes and sessions take place to provide a first-class member experience.

The local launch is being headed by Chelsea Clifford (pictured) in the role of Vice President of Sales - Australia & New Zealand.

As an owner of a women’s strength and conditioning gym on the NSW Central Coast for 10 years, Clifford has an intimate understanding of the staffing and recruitment challenges fitness business owners face. A registered nurse, Clifford’s 20-year career has spanned health, fitness and business, most recently working in product development.

Clifford, who still coaches in her local gym today, advised “exercise as medicine is a core value of mine and my career reflects that.

“My passion is to support everyday Aussies to improve their health via exercise, and fitness professionals are key to this. I want to help group fitness and operational managers navigate their staffing challenges so we can keep the right people in our industry, with the volume of work they need to build successful careers.

“For too long the fitness industry has been a part-time/side-hustle job for the majority. CoverMe helps to create more employment opportunities in venues to keep the best professionals where they should be - in front of clients working their magic.

“It’s what really excites me about the brand. This concept and technology hasn't been seen on this scale in this country; Australia and New Zealand has everything to gain from CoverMe.”

The CoverMe app is used global fitness brands like Virgin Active and Fitness First to streamline staff management and enable fitness professionals to advance their careers and boost their income. Adopted by 3,600 fitness clubs and venues, the app has an impressive 100% retention rate and 97% class cover record.

The app was founded in the UK and recently launched in the USA in partnership with IDEA® Health & Fitness Association.
