Two brands. One team. ROVA Health is what happens when two established names in health and wellbeing stop running in parallel and start moving together. Built on over a century of Westfield Health Group heritage and driven by the belief that the way people live, work, and recover has fundamentally changed — we exist to do something about it. This is a platform with purpose, built by people who care about getting it right. If you're joining us, you're not just starting a new job. You're helping navigate what comes next.
Navigate the unknown as ROVA Experience Specialist
Corporate wellbeing doesn't run on a script. This role is about leading the team that keeps it moving anyway, on-site, on one of Dublin's most high-profile campuses.
As Senior Performance Manager, you'll lead on-site delivery for one of our flagship corporate accounts — directing two active gyms and a premium pool facility, and managing a team of Performance Coaches who show up for people every day. It's a role split evenly between the floor and the boardroom: operational excellence on one side, strategic partnership on the other.
You'll own site budgets, present impact data to executive stakeholders, and build the on-site community that makes people want to come back. No two days will look the same.
Lead the team. Own the standard. Navigate the space.
