Treatment Specialist - Student/New Grad (Part-time)

OrangeTwist is seeking a motivated, entry-level or soon-to-be licensed Esthetician to join our team as a Treatment Specialist (Receptionist). This role is expected to primarily focus on front desk responsibilities during approximately the first twelve (12) months of employment, subject to change based on business needs, with responsibilities centered on reception, administrative support, client communications, and sales activities. During this initial 12-month period, the Treatment Specialist (Receptionist) will serve as the primary first point of contact for clients, creating a welcoming, professional, and rejuvenating experience through exceptional customer service. While this position includes exposure to and training in OrangeTwist’s esthetic treatments, such training is provided for professional development and preparation for potential future growth and does not guarantee a promotion or transition into an Esthetician role within any specific timeframe.

Based on business needs, availability, and completion of required licensing and qualifications, the employee may be asked to assist with treatments on a limited or backup basis. If a licensed Esthetician position becomes available prior to the completion of the 12-month period, and the business determines the employee is qualified and ready, an earlier transition may be considered; however, such a transition is not guaranteed.

This role is ideal for an individual who is passionate about client care, organization, sales support and gaining hands-on experience in a fast-paced wellness and beauty environment while building a foundation for long-term career growth.
