Overview
Part-Time Front Desk / Studio Coordinator — Ballroom Dance Studio Jobs in Fredericksburg at STRICTLY BALLROOM DANCE STUDIO
About Us
Strictly Ballroom Dance Studio is an established, independently owned ballroom dance studio in Fredericksburg, VA. For over 25 years, we’ve helped students master the elegance of ballroom, heat up the floor with Salsa, and find their rhythm in swing. Our 9,000 sq ft studio serves about 175 active students and a strong community of dancers throughout the region. We are a place where customers walk in smiling — and our front desk is the first reason they do.
The Role
We are hiring a part-time Front Desk Coordinator to be the face and voice of our studio. You’ll greet students, manage schedules, take payments, and keep the studio running smoothly while our instructors focus on teaching.
This is a stable, long-term part-time position for someone who values the role itself — not a stepping stone to a full-time career or management track. The right fit is someone who wants to settle in and own this desk for the long haul.
What a Great Fit Looks Like
- Naturally welcoming — You enjoy people. You remember names, ask about their week, and make every student feel seen the moment they walk in.
- Self-directed — You take ownership of the desk. You ask when you need to and figure things out when you can. You don’t need someone looking over your shoulder.
- Detail-oriented — Schedules, payments, and client accounts are right because you double-check.
- Situationally aware — You catch a student who looks lost, anticipate what an instructor needs next, and read the rhythm of the studio without being told.
- Calm under multitasking — Phones ring while clients walk in while a payment needs processing. You handle it with a smile.
- Reliable and professional — You show up on time, look polished, and represent the studio well.
