Brighton MET College, part of the Chichester College Group, is looking for a Salon Coordinator on a term time only basis, who will be responsible for supervising the reception area, taking all bookings, retailing, assessing students on their reception units, and overseeing the general day-to-day running and marketing of our commercial salons.

The College's Salons are where the Hair, Barbering and Beauty students have the chance to work in a realistic working salon, providing services and retailing to members of the public, college staff and college students. The salons operate in a similar way to any commercial salon.

Whilst you will predominantly work within the reception area, you may also be required to support elsewhere within the hair and beauty department on occasion.
