Onboard spa is all at sea
Onboard spa is all at sea. Renowned spa and salon services brand, The Onboard Spa by Steiner, visited Hugh Baird College to talk to students about career opportunities on board some of the world’s biggest and most luxurious cruise ships.
Steiner is the largest company operating spas at sea and the brand has been synonymous with quality spa and salon services at sea for more than 50 years.
The annual visit to the college by The Onboard Spa by Steiner is organised by Hugh Baird College’s curriculum co-ordinator for beauty therapy – and former Steiner employee – Kelly Randall.
Kelly said: “When I first qualified as a beauty therapist, I landed a job with The Onboard Spa by Steiner and spent the first two years of my career travelling the world on luxury liners before working as one of their trainers at the Academy in London.
“Now, as a tutor, I am passionate about making sure that our students have access to the same amazing opportunities.
“Linking with employers in this way means that we can ensure the students are aware of where their qualification can take them and give them valuable information about what the industry expects from them.”
Steiner’s UK regional recruitment manager for the North, Janine Brown, said: “As a company, we employ more than 3,000 spa professionals every year, from hairdressers and beauty therapists to acupuncturists and fitness instructors. So our recruitment campaigns are continuous.
“Being able to meet the Hugh Baird students and talk to them face to face means we can give them a glimpse of the exacting standards we expect on board and a realistic picture of what it’s like to work on a cruise ship.
“It also gives us a chance to encourage the newest crop of talented hairdressers, beauty therapists and personal trainers to attend one of our recruitment events.”
