Become a Group Leader

success with others.

Weight Watchers is the leading provider of long term healthy weight loss and weight management advice that suits every lifestyle.
For over 40 years Weight Watchers as the leading weight management organisation has been helping people to lose weight and keep it off.
As we continue to expand we are looking for more people to join a national network of Weight Watchers Group Leaders who already make a real difference to people's lives every week.
Being a Group Leader is a great way to stay in control of your own weight, and run a rewarding business that fits around you.
After taking part in a world class training programme you'll soon be able to run your own Weight Watchers meetings and inspire your members to lose weight and achieve their goals.

We are always looking for inspiring and motivating people to work with us to help our Members change their lives for the better!

If you are a Lifetime Member, you know what it's like get to your Goal Weight and achieve success with Weight Watchers. So how would you feel about supporting others to feel as good as you by becoming a Weight Watchers Group Leader?
Our Group Leaders come from all walks of life and they all agree that its one of the most rewarding and satisfying jobs you can have. In our most recent leader survey, 98% of those who replied said they enjoyed their job.
Being a Group Leader is a very flexible and highly rewarding job. We have opportunities both for Group Leaders who want to take many Meetings a week and for those who only want or are only able right now to take one or two a week. If you have other commitments, such as caring for children, you will find real flexibility working with Weight Watchers.
