The salon operates within
the Spa & Wellness department, this is a dual Hairdresser and Reception
role, requiring the successful candidate to also provide professional reception
support as operationally required, including welcoming guests, managing
appointments and enquiries, processing retail sales and guest transactions,
assisting with guest arrivals and treatment check-ins, supporting day-to-day Spa
& Wellness operations, and working collaboratively across both the salon
and reception while confidently managing the salon independently to meet
business needs.
