About Fitt
Fitt is a media-led platform operating at the center of health and wellness. Through content, talent, partnerships, services, and community, we help shape the companies, conversations, and people driving the industry forward.
We’ve built trust, audience, access, and a growing set of complementary businesses. Now we’re focused on making the full platform work better together — with stronger coordination, faster execution, and more consistent follow-through across the business.
The role
We’re hiring a Head of Platform to help make Fitt run better.
This is an operator-builder hybrid role for someone who can improve coordination, drive execution, and build the systems and workflows the platform needs as they go.
You will work closely with Fitt’s executive team and sit at the center of the business. You’ll help connect priorities across business lines, push high-value initiatives forward, manage inbound opportunities, and bring more structure and follow-through to the platform.
This is not a passive project management role. We’re not looking for someone to simply organize meetings, move tasks around, or wait for direction. We need someone who can absorb context quickly, make smart decisions, create structure where none exists, and run with important initiatives end to end.
If a workflow is broken, you fix it. If a system is missing, you build it. If something important needs to move, you make it happen.
What you’ll do
Help run the platform
Work closely with the executive team to keep priorities aligned
Improve coordination across content, talent, AIIR, partnerships, and other platform initiatives
Create and manage the operating rhythms that keep the business moving
Track key priorities, decisions, and follow-through
Make sure important opportunities do not stall or fall through the cracks
Drive cross-functional execution
Lead special projects and initiatives that span multiple parts of the business
Take ideas from discussion to execution without needing constant oversight
Step into ambiguous situations, create structure, and move work forward
Own timelines, deliverables, communication, and next steps across high-priority initiatives
Help leadership stay focused on what matters most
Build systems and workflows
Identify where process, communication, or ownership is breaking down
Create practical systems that improve visibility, accountability, and execution
Build workflows that help momentum move across the platform
Improve how information, opportunities, and follow-up are shared across teams
Put lightweight structure in place without adding unnecessary complexity
Manage inbound and opportunity flow
Review inbound opportunities, requests, intros, ideas, and partnership conversations
Assess fit, urgency, and strategic value
Filter what matters, redirect what doesn’t, and elevate the right things to leadership
Own follow-up and next steps when opportunities are worth pursuing
Act as a strong extension of the executive team in both internal and external communication
Lead high-value initiatives
Lead the development and launch of Fitt Insider's digital and in-person community and membership program
Run with projects like events, partnerships, activations, launches, or new engagement efforts
Coordinate small and mid-sized events from concept through execution
Support partnership development and implementation
Help execute cross-platform campaigns and strategic moments
Take ownership where there is opportunity but no natural home
Stay dialed into the industry
Stay close to the people, companies, and trends shaping health and wellness
Proactively identify emerging talent, rising executives, breakout companies, and high-value operators
Know when to reach out, build a relationship, or create a touchpoint before there is an immediate need
Help Fitt stay visible and relevant with the people who matter most
Surface new relationships, opportunities, and market signals to the executive team
Turn industry awareness into proactive outreach and action
Own and expand a recurring series of curated executive gatherings across health, wellness, and fitness
What success looks like
In this role, success looks like:
Better coordination across the platform
Faster execution on high-priority initiatives
Stronger follow-through internally and externally
More clarity around priorities, ownership, and next steps
Fewer distractions and less noise reaching the executive team
Better management of inbound opportunities
More momentum moving across business lines
Stronger visibility into what matters most
Leadership spending more time on strategic work and less time chasing details
What we’re looking for
You may be a fit if you are:
Highly organized and highly proactive
Action-oriented and comfortable moving quickly
Resourceful and calm under pressure
Comfortable with ambiguity and able to create structure where none exists
A strong communicator in writing and in person
Good at managing multiple priorities without losing momentum
Confident making decisions and owning outcomes
Polished with senior leaders, founders, executives, and partners
Someone who notices what is missing and builds it
Someone who cares about execution, not just ideas
What we do not want
This role is not for someone who is:
A passive coordinator
Only a project manager
Waiting for perfect direction before acting
Overly theoretical or process-heavy
More interested in planning than doing
Relying on pedigree instead of output
We are looking for someone who takes initiative, moves with urgency, and gets things done.
How you work
You should be someone who:
Can sit in a high-level conversation and quickly understand what matters
Knows when to act, when to ask, and when to escalate
Can represent leadership well
Can toggle between strategic thinking and tactical execution
Can manage details without losing sight of the bigger picture
Is comfortable owning messy, undefined work
Has high standards and strong follow-through
Why this role matters
Fitt has built real trust, reach, and influence across health and wellness. The next phase is about turning that position into more coordinated execution and greater leverage across the platform.
This role is central to that effort.
You’ll help make the business more connected, more effective, and more capable of acting on the opportunities already in front of us.
