Where the two guides disagree
Where the numbers differ, one figure is open (such as 6,000+), so there is no midpoint to compare.
Advertised payFrom live job ads
SuperyachtRoles.com shows advertised pay for a position once ads with pay come from ten or more employers, with no one employer over a third of them. This position does not meet that rule yet, so this page uses the two guides.
The roleFrom the crew role guide
Runs the onboard spa on large yachts: treatment menu, therapist team, bookings, stock and hygiene, usually reporting to the interior manager.
