Career Advice: Andrew Gibson

10 Nov 2015 Andrew Gibson
Vice President of Spa and Wellness
Fairmont Raffles Hotels and Resorts

The spa and wellness industry offers the opportunity to combine your passion for helping people whilst developing every aspect of managing a business.

Spa and wellness are in the service industry, which is challenging, demands full commitment and a positive mind, but the rewards are fulfilling when your contribution makes someone else feel better.

Anyone working in the spa, medical or wellness arena should understand the art of hospitality. Master this and your career will shine anywhere.

I would advise any person considering this career to take every opportunity to learn business management, to try to look at things from a variety of perspectives and to be positive in attitude.
