Spa Manager

Overview:

Rescue Spa is seeking an experienced, results-oriented leader to help manage our Philadelphia spa. This role would work closely with Rescue’s senior leadership team, as well as other key members of the management team. This is a “hands on” position – both leading and performing daily operations work. This is a leadership role that requires strong organizational skills, excellent communication abilities, and a passion for delivering a memorable spa experience.

The ideal candidate is a self-starter that is able to dive in quickly to assess our current operations, determine the best strategies to achieve our goals and then actually execute those plans and “get things done.” They will possess a great deal of strength in financial management and controls, be a hiring magician and a sales genius. The ability to prioritize, act with a sense of urgency while maintaining a calm and professional demeanor is critical. An unwavering focus on delivering the most magical client experience while balancing the needs of the business is also necessary.

They will be comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where the focus is on rewarding results. Additionally, experience integrating the best practices from bigger corporate companies with the flexibility and face pace of a family business is helpful as we all “wear many hats” and “hands on” work is needed to create and implement new systems, processes and policies to solve business challenges that will help us to sustain our growth. And, even when not onsite, this person is responsible for ensuring that the operation is running smoothly and is always the first call when an unexpected issue or the crisis arises.
