What are the responsibilities and job description for the Licensed Esthetician position at Ethical Esthetics?
Job Summary Our cozy, heartfelt spa is seeking a skilled, passionate, and personable Licensed Esthetician to join our small team.
Ethical Esthetics is a cozy, boutique day spa built on genuine connections, education, and results. We believe healthy skin is achieved through consistency, education, and thoughtful treatments—not trends, aggressive procedures, or sales pressure.
Our philosophy is simple: we provide honest recommendations, therapeutic facial massage, and customized treatments while helping clients truly understand their skin. Every appointment is designed to build trust, confidence, and long-term skin health.
We're looking for a skilled, passionate, and personable Licensed Esthetician who shares those values and is excited to grow with our business. If you love skincare, have a firm yet gentle touch for facial massage, can carry out various esthetic treatments in a timely and professional manner, work independently and responsibly in a private treatment setting, enjoy continual learning, and find fulfillment in making a meaningful difference in your clients' skin health, you'll feel right at home here.
What We're Looking For
The ideal candidate is confident, compassionate, and self-motivated. Because we are a small boutique spa, you'll work independently in a private treatment room while creating the warm, personalized experience our clients know and love.
You should be someone who:
- Is passionate about skincare and helping clients achieve healthy, lasting results.
- Enjoys educating clients rather than selling to them.
- Learns quickly and is excited to master our facial protocols.
- Has a firm yet gentle touch and enjoys performing therapeutic facial massage.
- Communicates professionally while making clients feel comfortable and cared for.
- Takes initiative and manages daily responsibilities confidently without constant supervision.
- Welcomes feedback and continually strives to improve your skills. We're looking for someone who wants to become part of our spa family—not simply fill a position.
