Wellness Centre Manager

Business Overview Miller's Way is 'human health project' located in an old Tabernacle hall in Shepherd's Bush, W6.
Set over two floors, we operate a busy, multi-faceted therapy clinic on the first floor and a training/studio space on the ground floor.
Our aim is twofold: -             To offer Classical Chinese medicine (and other traditional modalities) of the highest quality, practiced expertly by committed therapists who are dedicated to improving their own knowledge and skills, as well as working together in a truly collaborative manner to ensure the best outcomes for their clients.
-             To work to educate more people about their bodies, and to create an environment where people are empowered with information that allows them to take control of their health.
To achieve this, we strive to provide a clinic which puts each patient at the forefront of every interaction, ensuring their specific needs are understood and met at every visit.
Continuing this aspect of our commitment to care, our mission also entails ensuring that a portion of our earnings will always be dedicated to charity work so that that those less financially fortunate can also have access to treatment.
Every aspect of the clinic must make a client or potential client trust that the clinic will support them in their health journey.
Ideally, we would like the two floors of treatment and training to be mutually supportive, such that successfully treated patients are motivated to make use of classes and training downstairs, and class/workshop participants are aware of the wealth of therapies and treatments available upstairs should they encounter health issues.
