Founded in 1976, Balanced Body sets the global standard for Pilates excellence, through premium equipment, instructor training and industry-leading resources. We partner with customers in 100+ countries, with world-renowned customer service and a serious commitment to environmentally friendly business practices. Headquartered in Sacramento, California, Balanced Body has been family-owned and operated for 50 years. If you want to work with a company with a passion for changing lives through movement and opportunity, we want to hear from you. Balanced Body Education trains instructors worldwide through teacher-training programs, continuing education courses, workshops, and online learning. Our students range from people just discovering Pilates to experienced movement professionals and physical therapists. We support every one of them from their first inquiry through certification and beyond.
The Customer Care Manager leads the team that supports our education students, instructors, and host studio partners. You will make sure every interaction — a question about prerequisites, a registration issue, a certification exam — is handled with warmth, accuracy, and speed.
You will also own the policies, systems, and processes behind that care, so the student experience keeps getting better as our programs grow.
