What employers look forFrom the Spa Manager guide

Captains and interior managers hire people with several seasons as a yacht spa therapist, or a senior land background in a five-star hotel or cruise ship spa. Recognised qualifications are expected: CIDESCO, ITEC or VTCT Level 3 in beauty and massage. Calm manners, discretion and a tidy, organised approach count as much as technique. Many owners want someone who can also teach yoga or Pilates, or run personal training.
