You want to know how you’ll get along with the team, how much money you can make and if your career has the ability to grow, right?
We want to help take some of the guesswork out of it for you and provide you with the information you care about most. Hopefully, you’ll learn a little more about us and give us the opportunity to learn more about you.
We have an amazing team of dedicated stylists and service providers that support each other and love what they do which creates a fun and upbeat atmosphere to work in. Our salon and spa is trendy, upscale and located in a bustling and fast-growing city neighborhood that serves over 15,000 clients annually.
Our team cares about their clients and puts their needs and concerns above everything else. To be part of our team, you have to take your craft seriously and want to continuously grow as a person and artist to become excellent at your craft and provide an experience for every guest that exceeds expectations. We want to help you do that! We are committed to making you the best you can be in every way by providing support, education and guidance.
WHO ARE WE CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR?
A full-time state-licensed stylist with previous experience working in a salon or fresh out of school
WHAT KIND OF PERSON DO WE WANT?
We hire people who love the beauty industry and love making people feel good about themselves. We look for people who won’t be afraid to help guide their clients to their desired outcomes through product recommendations and techniques. We want you to be dependable, upbeat and eager to grow. You can’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it and we need you to show up to work looking great (this is the beauty industry after all).
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM US?
You’ll have a team of co-workers that feel like family and support when you’re unsure, judgment-free. You’ll receive continual and free education both in-salon and out, featuring world-renowned Aveda educators and consistent mentorship and feedback to help you grow.
Every stylist we hire has the opportunity to advance their careers very quickly, along with their paycheck. If you’re just starting your in-salon career with us, you’ll start out making a competitive hourly rate with commission that advances into a competitive full-commission rate. You’ll also begin with a 6-month comprehensive and paid training program.
If you’re coming to us with previous experience, you’ll be able to begin on the floor immediately with a full book of clients and will start out at a competitive full-commission rate. On top of your hourly/commission rate, all stylists have the opportunity for monthly retail sales bonuses, which can sometimes double your monthly earnings.
We all love getting paid and making money, but extra job perks are always welcome. Luckily, we have several competitive perks that all employees get to enjoy, including discounts on Aveda products, free salon and spa services, paid vacation time, unlimited days off and enrollment in a simple IRA program with employer matching after one year of employment. Plus, we never make you sign a contract. Your career trajectory is truly yours!
On top of all of this, you’ll get to leave every day feeling like you made a difference. We not only help our clients feel and look beautiful but we also participate in many activities that help our community and environment. Who wouldn’t love that?
If you have a passion for your craft and for others, we would love to hear from you! Send us a message from our contact page or send your resume to joshb@philipjohnsonsalon.com.
