• Client Care: Providing exceptional service, including tea and coffee.

What You Bring

• Experience: Proven knowledge of hairdressing and busy salon dynamics.
• Initiative: You see what needs to be done and you do it - no micro-management required.
• Punctuality: You take pride in helping the team stay on time and organised.
• Commitment: Available for 7-8 hours over 2.5 days a week, plus a non-negotiable 3-4 hour shifts every second Saturday.
