The Role

The Spa Industry offers exciting career opportunities for job seekers looking to break into the industry for the first time.

The role

Make-Up Artists create make-up looks for people who will be standing in front of a camera or live audience. The fields that make-up artists commonly work in include fashion - covering both shoots and shows - other photographic shoots, film, TV, theatre and concerts.

The kind of make-up created depends on the job that an artist is working on – a hospital TV programme could require cuts and scars, a fashion shoot a cutting-edge concept to show the latest make-up trends, or a news programme a natural look for their anchor person.

The Role

Hairdressers cut and style hair. The opportunities available in hairdressing are endless. Never have there been so many exciting possibilities at the cutting edge of the fashion, style and grooming business. The majority work in salons, where they build up a client list after a period of time. Some may work from home, once they have enough clients to afford to do so. And a small percentage may go into hairstyling in industries such as fashion, film and TV, doing hair for photo shoots, fashion shows, or filmed sequences.

The Role

A beauty therapist enhances a client’s appearance and improves their wellbeing through the application of treatments to the body and face.

Treatments can range from facials and massage to manicures, waxing, make-up artistry and aromatherapy.

Many beauty therapists work in salons or spas, with treatments taking place in private rooms. Some may be self-employed, travelling to client’s homes to carry treatments out.
