Professional qualifications in spa therapy, wellness or hospitality management would be advantageous.
Raffles Seychelles is a luxury resort operated by Raffles Hotels & Resorts, part of Accor, a leading global hospitality group. Located on Praslin Island in the Seychelles, the resort is known for its spacious private villas, personalised butler service, beach access and high-end dining and wellness experiences. Raffles is recognised for combining refined hospitality with a strong sense of place, creating distinctive stays built around local culture, privacy and thoughtful service. As part of Accor, the resort benefits from international systems, training, career mobility and operational support across a broad portfolio of hotel brands. Working at Raffles Seychelles typically involves serving an international luxury clientele in a remote island environment, collaborating with a multicultural team and maintaining demanding standards for guest care, presentation and discretion.
Seychelles offers employment mainly in luxury resorts, hotels, restaurants, marine tourism, wellness, conservation, construction and professional services. The culture blends African, European and Asian influences, with Creole widely spoken alongside English and French. Island life is relaxed and community-oriented, centred on beaches, outdoor activities, fishing, music and family gatherings. Living costs can be high, particularly for imported goods and accommodation, although resort employees may receive housing, meals, transport or service-charge benefits. Most foreign workers require a Gainful Occupation Permit, normally arranged with employer support before starting work; entry, medical and document requirements should be checked with Seychelles immigration. Relocation is attractive for people comfortable with tropical weather, limited shopping and slower transport between islands. Mahé has the widest range of services and jobs, while Praslin and La Digue offer quieter lifestyles but fewer amenities. Candidates should confirm contract benefits, housing, flights, insurance and leave arrangements before accepting an offer.
