Salon Sloane is a luxury hair salon in the heart of Sloane Square, and we are looking for a new Salon Assistant to join our team.
We are looking for someone who is friendly, well presented, organised, reliable and hardworking, and who genuinely enjoys being around people.
The role is an important part of the day-to-day running of the salon. You will be working closely with our stylists and colourists, helping to make sure our clients are looked after from the moment they arrive and that the salon is kept to a high standard throughout the day.
Your day-to-day role will include:
- Greeting clients and making them feel welcome
- Taking coats and personal belongings
- Gowning clients for their appointments
- Washing and preparing clients’ hair
- Making and serving teas, coffees and water
- Assisting our stylists and colourists throughout the day
- Keeping the salon clean, tidy and organised
- Keeping stations stocked and ready for the team
- Helping with towels and laundry
- General salon duties and making sure everything is where it should be
- Helping wherever needed, particularly during busy periods
The person we’re looking for
We are looking for someone who takes pride in what they do and understands that the little things make a big difference in a luxury salon.
You should be:
- Well presented and professional
- Friendly and confident when speaking to clients
- Organised and good at managing your time
- Reliable and punctual
- Able to stay calm and work well when the salon gets busy
- Someone who notices what needs doing rather than waiting to be told
- Happy to get stuck in and help the team
- Naturally clean and tidy
- Positive, hardworking and willing to learn
Being proactive is really important to us.
There will be busy moments in the salon, and we need someone who can use their initiative and keep themselves busy. If you see that towels need folding, a station needs cleaning, a client needs looking after or something needs restocking, we want you to notice it and deal with it rather than waiting for somebody to ask.
We are a small team, so having someone who is dependable and willing to help wherever needed makes a huge difference.
Experience
Previous salon experience is a bonus but isn’t essential. More important to us is your attitude, work ethic, presentation and how you interact with people.
You may be someone who already has experience working in a salon, or you may be looking for your first opportunity in the industry.
We are also happy to hear from students currently studying at college 2 or 3 days a week, and we can consider both full-time and part-time applicants.
You do not have to be looking to become a hairdresser. If you simply enjoy working with people and would like to work in a beautiful, busy luxury salon environment, we would still love to hear from you.
Please note: Salon Sloane does not currently offer an apprenticeship or formal training programme.
