Fitness training association FitPro has announced a new senior management line up to take the company forward with its new product and service portfolio.
Industry veteran Fergus Ahern has joined FitPro as director of commercial operations (Europe) and Mel Spooner has been recruited as head of commercial operations UK.
Ahern’s role will see him work to expand the company outside of its current membership base. His 23-year career in the fitness industry spans health club and supplier roles, including a stint as a board director of the Fitness Industry Association, now ukactive.
Most recently, Ahern headed up the entry of MOSSA - formerly known as Body Training Systems (BTS) - to the UK market.
“My focus will be to promote FitPro to the wider fitness industry, outside of its membership base, as well as the new innovations, including FitPro Edge, we are launching this year,” said Ahern.
Spooner began her career in fitness operations a decade ago and last worked as UK and Ireland commercial manager for TRX.
Her role at FitPro includes overseeing the commercial and account management team, which support a number of brands in the UK.
