About this role

Be Part of Something Extraordinary – AIRE Los Angeles Is Coming!

A new chapter of AIRE Ancient Baths is coming to Los Angeles, and we're looking for exceptional individuals to bring it to life.

Inspired by the bathing traditions of ancient Roman, Greek, and Ottoman civilizations, AIRE creates unique spaces where time stands still, inviting guests to disconnect and experience the art of relaxation.

As we prepare to open our largest location in North America , we're bringing the AIRE Experience to the heart of Los Angeles' Arts District.

Set within a beautifully restored 1930s industrial building, AIRE Los Angeles will blend exposed brick, warm wood, and natural stone to create an intimate sanctuary featuring ten baths and relaxation spaces.

Now, we're building the team that will bring this experience to life.

At AIRE, our people are at the heart of everything we do. We value genuine care, collaboration, and excellence in every detail.
