A Global Spa and Wellness Summit study shows a gap between expansive job opportunities and qualified candidates. According to the GSWS, the demand for skilled spa managers/directors has been accelerated by an industry that has been on an upward trajectory, growing from $60 billion in 2007 to an estimated $73 billion in 2012**, with fast-growing markets, including parts of Asia, currently clocking an increase in annual revenues of up to 20 percent a year. The GSWS also cited an estimated 22 percent increase in the number of spas worldwide during this time period: from 71,600 five years ago, to an estimated 87,000-plus today.
**Industry estimates based on a review of global growth trends since the release of the GSWS/SRI “Global Spa Economy 2007 Report.”
