Hi, my name is Jake, I joined JCB Active in 2019 as a Fitness Advisor, in 2021 I became a Team Leader and now JCB Active Manager as of September 2024. During this time, I’ve been lucky to continue my professional development through new fitness related qualifications, these include Boxercise and Exercise Referral, the latter leading to the creation of JCB Actives’ Exercise Referral Scheme in 2023 and now I have the privilege of leading the facilities into a brighter future.
At JCB Active, you will find me in a range of roles, including front desk duties, leading the ‘Exercise Referral’ scheme, teaching classes and other operational duties that are required when working in a leisure facility. I believe we have an opportunity to create something special and provide a corporate wellbeing service to be proud of.
Away from the working world, I find myself active through 5-6 gym sessions per week and walking on the weekends, in my own training I favour Strength/Hypertrophy and rotate these two in 4 week blocks, however I understand the importance of maintaining function within all components of fitness. I like to challenge myself with new skills, trying to improve my knowledge of various topics, this has led me to being able to complete a Rubik cube in under 2 minutes, taking up the hobby of baking and attempting to learn Spanish.
