    Harrow

    Company description Sayang's Massage & Spa is a small but growing massage therapy business conveniently-located in Central Harrow. We pride ourselves on providing the best massages at the best prices. We make an extra effort to form lasting friendships with our clients who we know on a first-name basis and treat our therapists as professionals, with their own profile on our website so that clients can make a booking with the therapist of their choice. To provide the best massages at the best prices we keep our overheads to a minimum and endeavour to pay our therapists more per hour than other massage businesses in the area - £20 per hour per completed massage. Our massage therapists are self-employed subcontractors and so work in partnership with us to grow our businesses. We provide a venue, CCTV security & ring doorbells, massage studios, tables and supplies as well as provide sales and marketing support. We look to create a win-win situation where we grow the business together and everyone benefits. We are open from 10 am till 10 pm and cater to clients with busy schedules and need a regular therapeutic massage, which also provides opportunity for many of our therapists to work evenings and weekends at Sayang's Massage, boosting their income alongside their day job. Job description We are looking for reliable, professional and friendly massage therapists to provide therapeutic massages for our clients, including but not limited to Swedish, Deep Tissue, Balinese, Thai and Couples Massage. Strictly professional massages only. On-the-job training can be provided alongside guiding you to relevant ITEC Level 3 Massage courses (located near our premises) and assisting you with student and full memberships in professional associations such as the Federation of Holistic Therapies. Our therapists are self-employed sub-contractors so registration as self-employed with HMRC would be required and we can guide you towards the relevant recourses for making a declaration as a self-employed person. Weather permitting, we'll be re-opening our Jacuzzi which massage clients can book (for an additional fee) before or after their massage. The Jacuzzi bookings are particularly popular with couples and is also available for use by our therapists when not booked for client use. As you would be a self-employed therapist, we provide sales and marketing support to assist you in securing bookings as well as providing the venue, equipment, aromatherapy oils, etc. We look forwards to discussing the role with you in more detail and working together to create a prosperous and happy new year for all of us.
