Staff Manager

Application deadline 6th Feb 2026

Staff Manager – Luna Hut Sauna

Full-time | Thursday–Monday | £29-32k based on experience | Brighton & coastal sites

Start date Feb/March 2026

Luna Hut is a community-focused sauna business rooted in wellbeing, nature, and calm, thoughtful experiences. We run multiple beachside sauna sites across Sussex and are growing carefully and intentionally.

We’re looking for a Staff Manager to take ownership of staffing, rotas, and day-to-day support for our sauna host team.

This is a hands-on, people-centred role. You’ll be the person making sure our sites are properly staffed, our hosts feel supported and confident, and short-notice staffing issues are handled calmly and practically.

You’ll work Thursday–Monday, based primarily from our Beaconsfield Road Sauna Café and regularly travelling to our sauna sites. This is not a work-from-home role.

What you’ll be responsible for

  • Managing rotas, availability, holidays, and sickness cover

  • Handling short-notice staffing changes and stepping in where needed

  • Being a consistent, supportive point of contact for hosts

  • Recruiting, onboarding, and training new sauna team members

  • Spending regular time on site checking in with staff and building strong relationships

How this role fits

  • You’ll focus on people, coverage, and day-to-day continuity

  • You’ll work closely with the Operations Manager, who holds operational systems, safety, and wider decision-making

  • The role involves practical judgement and autonomy within staffing and people support

Who this role suits

  • Someone who enjoys being out on the ground rather than desk-based

  • Calm under pressure and good at solving people problems in the moment

  • Confident supporting others without escalating unnecessarily

  • Happy working weekends as part of a consistent pattern

  • Full UK driving licence required

We’re a small, values-led business rather than a chain. Warmth, good judgement, and care for both people and place really matter here.
