Job description

Therapist - York

Hello York Now recruiting for a Spa Therapist at the Spa at No.1 York. Do you have healing hands and a passion for pampering? Can you deliver tranquillity with a smile and a perfectly folded towel? If so, we'd love to welcome you to our wellness dream team. Here at the Spa at No.1 York, we're a small but stylish, family-run boutique hotel, and we're looking for a Spa Therapist who's equal parts skilled, serene, and sensational at making guests feel like royalty (or at least like they've stepped out of a medieval spa retreat). While we welcome all applications, please note that this role is dedicated to wellness treatments rather than beauty treatments. Please note this is a part time permanent contract (32 hours per week).

What you’ll be doing

• Delivering a range of treatments-from massages to facials-with expert care and a calming touch.
• Creating a peaceful, welcoming environment that guests never want to leave.
• Advising guests on treatments, products, and post-spa bliss.
• Maintaining high standards of cleanliness, hygiene, and serenity.
• Working closely with the spa and hotel teams to ensure a seamless guest experience.

What we’re looking for

• Recognised qualifications in massage therapy (Level 3 or equivalent).
• Previous experience in a spa or wellness setting.
• A warm, professional manner and a genuine love for guest care.
• A sense of humour and a love for York's rich heritage-from Roman baths to Viking saunas (probably).
• Reliability, discretion, and a passion for wellness.

If your aspiration is to work for a company that understands you and trusts your instincts when it comes to hospitality and you've been looking for this kind of role for a while. Guess what, we've been looking for you too!

What’s in it for you

• Work in a stylish, intimate hotel that feels more like a home than a group of hotels.
• Be part of a small, close-knit team where your ideas matter.
• Competitive pay, and plenty of guest-powered stories.
• An extra holiday day for your birthday.
• All breaks are paid.
• No conveyor belt style treatments here, you\'ll get a break between each treatment to relax and set up for your next guest.
• Our team have their own team room - with their own pantry full of food, to use whenever they like. Grab a snack! Plus, get a free meal on shift.
• You can stay/dine with your family and friends in any of our hotels/restaurants/spas at a great discount.
• The satisfaction of turning a city break into a cherished memory.

Ready to bring calm, care, and a touch of luxury to every guest?

Apply now and let's make hospitality history-one blissful treatment at a time.
