Job description

Casual Salon Assistant | Join the Sol + Soma Team

Salon Assistant (Casual – Daytime Hours)

Sol + Soma Salon | The Junction, Newcastle

Love people? Love beautiful spaces? Looking for a job you’ll genuinely enjoy coming to?

We’re looking for a casual Salon Assistant to join our friendly team during the day. This is the perfect role for someone wanting to gain hands‑on experience in a premium salon, whether you’re considering a future in hairdressing or simply love working in a fast‑paced, creative environment. This is quite a unique role and would suit a range of applicants. It would suit a senior hairdresser not wanting to be client facing and still working in a salon environment or someone wanting to expand on their skills in a customer service role.

At Sol + Soma, you’ll be part of a supportive team where everyone pitches in, every day is different and no two clients are the same. You’ll help keep the salon running smoothly by welcoming clients, preparing refreshments, assisting our stylists, keeping the salon looking beautiful, looking after front of salon and creating an exceptional experience from the moment someone walks through the door.

No salon experience? That’s okay. We’re looking for attitude over experience. If you’re reliable, confident, well‑presented, love people and enjoy being busy, we’d love to meet you.

You’ll love this role if you:

Enjoy working with people and being part of a team.

Have a positive attitude and are happy to jump in wherever needed.

Take pride in keeping things organised and looking beautiful.

Are available to work during weekday hours.

Are interested in learning about the hair and beauty industry.

Why Sol + Soma?

A welcoming, supportive team that genuinely enjoys working together.

A beautiful boutique salon with a loyal clientele.

Ongoing learning and the opportunity to explore a future career in hairdressing if that’s where your passion takes you.

If you’re looking for more than just a casual job and want to be part of something special, we’d love to hear from you.
