Day-to-day operating brief

What Receptionist (Club front desk) work looks like in practice

A Fitness Club Receptionist manages member access, bookings and enquiries while monitoring the first point of entry to a leisure facility. Terms should cover membership systems, identity, guest passes, payments and refunds, class capacity, telephone and digital contact, keys, lost property, deliveries, emergency alarms, vulnerable visitors, complaints, privacy, lone opening or closing and referral of fitness or medical questions. A club receptionist controls first access to members, guests and contractors while supporting bookings, payments and everyday safety messages. The role can include checking membership status, issuing passes, managing class waiting lists, responding to lost property and activating emergency or safeguarding procedures. Terms should specify cash and refund limits, data visibility, CCTV boundaries, lone opening or closing, key control and when behaviour is referred to management rather than confronted. The receptionist should not provide exercise or health advice merely because they work at a fitness facility. Shift handover should identify expected visitors, unresolved billing queries, facility closures, safeguarding concerns and any member restriction without displaying sensitive details to people waiting at reception.
