Position Overview
Zenova Med Spa is seeking a polished, highly organized, and sales-driven Patient Care Coordinator / Med Spa Receptionist to join our growing team.

The ideal candidate has experience working in a medical spa, aesthetic practice, wellness clinic, luxury salon, or other high-touch client-service environment. They should be confident speaking with prospective and existing clients, explaining services and promotions, overcoming common booking objections, and helping clients move forward with consultations, appointments, packages, and memberships.
This individual must be warm, professional, persuasive, dependable, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, performance-driven environment.
Spanish speaking is a key requirement.
