Housekeeping Manager

Work in Wellness at the New Yora Nordic Spa

Something New Is Taking Shape

Opening in November 2026, Yora Nordic Spa is a place to pause, reconnect and experience wellbeing through nature, hydrotherapy and authentic human connection. It is a space where our team will create thoughtful and welcoming experiences that help guests reconnect with themselves, with others and with the natural world around them.

We are now beginning to build our founding team—the people who will bring Yora Nordic Spa to life and shape our culture from the very beginning. Working at Yora means working in wellness and contributing to a workplace and guest experience that are simple, inclusive, natural and social.

This role will recruit, welcome, train and lead the founding Housekeeping team who will prepare Yora Nordic Spa to open to our community in November 2026. This role is anticipated to start on or around September 28, 2026.

The Housekeeping Manager creates the spaces where wellbeing begins. Through thoughtful leadership, strong operations and an unwavering commitment to cleanliness and presentation, this role builds a team that creates calm, comfortable and restorative spaces, allowing guests to focus less on their surroundings and more on slowing down, reconnecting and feeling well.
