Whether it's dealing with an operational issue, supporting Front of House, completing a stock check, speaking with an independent hairdresser or making client refreshments during a busy period, we expect everyone to work together to maintain the standards of Williams & Hirst. The ability to work evenings and Saturdays is an essential requirement of this position. Applicants must have flexibility across these periods as part of their regular working pattern.

The salon can be extremely busy, with multiple things requiring attention at the same time. You need to be able to remain calm, prioritise effectively and make decisions while continuing to deliver a high standard of service. Excellent spoken and written English is essential for this role, due to the level of daily communication required with clients, independent hairdressers, team members, Directors, brands, suppliers and external partners. You should be: • Highly organised with excellent attention to detail, • Confident working in a fast-paced and high-pressure environment, • Responsible, reliable and punctual, • Proactive — someone who sees what needs doing and does it, • Comfortable taking ownership and making day-to-day decisions, • Confident managing rotas, staffing requirements and last-minute changes, • An excellent verbal and written communicator, • Approachable but confident enough to be firm when required, • Comfortable having difficult conversations and resolving issues, • Naturally hospitality and customer-service focused, • Able to coordinate and support a Front of House team, • Comfortable carrying out stock checks and maintaining accurate records, • Calm and solutions-focused when problems arise, • Happy to be hands-on and help wherever required, • Someone who takes genuine pride in maintaining exceptionally high standards, • Able and willing to work evenings and Saturdays – this is non-negotiable and an essential requirement of the role Previous salon experience is preferred, particularly experience within a busy or premium salon environment.
