About Us

The  Jacob Zemer Team  is not your average coaching company. We are a premier, results-driven remote accountability program based in  Westchester, NY , serving a rapidly expanding  nationwide  client base. Our work is deeply rooted in one mission :   to help people transform their health, fitness, and lives through structure, accountability, and education.

We believe that success starts with consistency, and consistency thrives on accountability. Our clients come to us looking for more than workouts and macros—they come to us for  a system that works , a  coach who cares , and a  community that delivers results.

Our team of elite coaches blends evidence-based nutrition strategies with personalized training programs and an unparalleled level of communication and support. Every message, every check-in, every data point—everything we do is designed to help clients achieve long-term, sustainable change.

Now, as our client base continues to grow, we’re looking for a  career-oriented Fitness & Nutrition Coach  to join our high-performance team as a  1099 independent contractor (20–30 hours per week) . This is not just another remote coaching gig—it’s an opportunity to be part of a brand that’s redefining what accountability coaching looks like nationwide.

If you’re confident in assigning macros, coaching individualized nutrition strategies, and helping clients truly understand what to eat and why—it’s time to bring your expertise to a team built for impact.

The Role : Fitness & Nutrition Coach

This position is ideal for someone who lives and breathes fitness and nutrition, thrives in a structured remote environment, and wants to grow inside a culture of excellence, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

You’ll play a direct role in helping clients achieve life-changing results through consistency, strategy, and support. You’ll work with real people who are ready to commit—and rely on you to guide, educate, and hold them accountable every step of the way.

Responsibilities Client Coaching & Accountability

  • Manage a roster of assigned clients through our remote coaching platform with precision, structure, and consistency.
  • Conduct  daily text check-ins  to ensure clients stay on track, accountable, and progressing toward their goals.
  • Assign and adjust  macronutrient targets  based on client data, biofeedback, and performance metrics.
  • Deliver individualized  nutrition coaching  with clarity—helping clients not just follow the plan, but understand  why  it works.
  • Provide ongoing education and guidance that builds long-term sustainability, not quick fixes.
  • Offer unwavering support, motivation, and direct feedback to ensure every client feels seen, heard, and led.

Program & Client Management

  • Track client metrics, engagement, and adherence using internal systems and tools.
  • Provide weekly and monthly performance updates, summarizing wins, challenges, and progress trends.
  • Identify obstacles early and work collaboratively with the team to find smart, actionable solutions.
  • Contribute to ongoing  system improvements , providing feedback to help refine our coaching process and enhance client experience.
  • Maintain organized records, detailed communication, and a professional standard that reflects the brand at every level.
  • Collaboration & Brand Alignment

  • Work closely with the  Jacob Zemer Team  to ensure consistency in coaching philosophy, communication style, and quality of service.
  • Represent and invest in the  Jacob Zemer brand —we’re looking for someone who wants to grow  with  our company, not build their own.
  • Bring your unique personality and expertise to a collaborative, driven environment where every coach is aligned under one shared vision.
  • Stay up to date with current trends in nutrition, strength training, and behavior change science—and integrate that knowledge into your coaching.
  • Qualifications

    We’re looking for more than certifications—we’re looking for coaches who bring  depth, professionalism, and long-term vision  to the work.

  • Proven background in  nutrition coaching , with hands-on experience assigning and adjusting macros.
  • Confidence in explaining  why  specific strategies work—able to connect data and science with real-world application.
  • Organized, reliable, and detail-oriented—able to manage multiple clients effectively in a remote environment.
  • Strong communication and tech skills; comfortable using digital tools and coaching platforms to manage clients and deliver value.
  • Bachelor’s degree  in Exercise Science, Kinesiology, Nutrition, or a related field preferred.
  • Current  Personal Training and / or Nutrition Certification  (Precision Nutrition certification preferred).
  • A clear, professional communicator with a client-first mindset and an ability to hold others accountable with empathy and strength.
  • Long-term commitment to a career in fitness and nutrition (5–10+ years)—this isn’t a side hustle; it’s a calling.
  • Must align with our culture of high standards, professionalism, and relentless pursuit of better.
  • Position Details

  • Type :  Independent Contractor (1099)
  • Hours :  20–30 hours per week, Monday–Friday, 8am–5pm EST (remote)
  • Compensation :  $30–$40 / hour, based on experience and qualifications
  • Why Join The Jacob Zemer Team?

    At the Jacob Zemer Team, you’re not just another coach—you’re part of a mission-driven system that’s changing how people approach fitness, nutrition, and accountability. We’ve built a platform where  coaches can focus on what they do best : coaching , without the distractions of marketing, lead generation, or inconsistent systems.

    You’ll be surrounded by like-minded professionals who share your values :

  • Discipline over motivation.
  • Long-term strategy over quick fixes.
  • Education over guesswork.
  • We invest in our team the same way we expect our clients to invest in themselves—with structure, feedback, and continuous growth. You’ll get the support, tools, and proven systems needed to succeed—backed by a brand that’s earned national recognition for results and consistency.

    Here, we don’t just talk about accountability. We live it.

    If you’re a driven, organized, and passionate professional ready to grow with a company that’s scaling fast,  this is your opportunity to be part of something bigger .

    How to Apply

    If this sounds like you—if you’re ready to join a team that’s redefining accountability, transforming lives, and raising the standard of online coaching— we want to hear from you.

    Apply today, and bring your skill set, work ethic, and passion to a brand that’s built to last.
