Job description
Figaro London is an award-winning hair & beauty salon in East-Central London. We’re a boutique salon. We’ve been around for 10 years and have an established clientele that we'd like to build back after the pandemic.
We work with an ambitious team of freelance, independent hairdressers, beauty therapists and nail technicians who are passionate about excellent customer service and are highly professional at what they do.
Our clients appreciate the free-spirited atmosphere we have and give us the best reviews. We don’t just sell a service or product. We help, educate, entertain and inspire our clients.
Have more flexibility as a beautician and enjoy the support of an independent but well-established salon.
Figaro London's been around for over 10 years. We're a hair & beauty salon with fantastic reviews and long opening hours to cater for our fast-growing customer base.
We're now looking to partner up with independent beauty therapists, beauticians, and nail techs who'd like to run their own little business under the umbrella of Figaro London, serving their own client base (if they have any) and also looking after our clients that come through the door as and when time and schedule allows.
We want this to be a more independent position, ideal for those ambitious beauty professionals who already established a smaller or larger follower base they'd like to serve in a professional environment, want flexibility with schedule but are not yet in a position to open their own salon. It's also a suitable opportunity for those who perhaps don't yet have a large follower base as we're an established salon with a client base.
As you're not an employee of the business but we work in partnership, you can set your own hours and manage your time. It gives you more flexibility and freedom.
If you have a main job and you'd like to cover a day or two only each week as freelance, we'd love to hear from you.
We'd also like you to be someone who looks after the salon as well as your colleagues working in the salon, so an independent team-player is the best way to describe who we are looking for in an ideal world.
We offer business and marketing support, online scheduler, webpage with your own professional profile, we invest heavily in advertising and SEO and we have a well-established wonderful local follower base.
Requirements:
- Exceptional skills and salon experience (our reputation is very very good in the neighbourhood, we'd like to partner up with someone who honours that and helps us maintain it if not further develop it)
- Trustworthiness (when you say you'll be here at 9am next Tuesday, we expect you to turn up at 8.45am on the Tuesday)
- Punctuality (keep in mind the customer's time, be aware of your own schedule and pay attention to quality when doing service)
- High emotional intelligence (if you have experience, you know what this is about)
- Good references (goes without saying but still: we'd like to work with individuals who don't burn bridges but help to build them)
We're open to this being a rent-a-table / room or commission-based agreement that we can design in a way that suits you:
It can be based on either a regular daily rate, a weekly rate or a monthly rolling rate, or a profit-share kind of agreement if that's more suitable for you. We prefer the latter but we are open to discussing this with you.
Interested? We'd love to hear from you.
Please email us your CV and if you do any nail services, please also attach a couple of before-after photos you're really proud of (eg. manicures, pedicures) so we can see the quality of your work, and we will be in touch asap. If you're a beauty therapist and you don't do nails, if you have any feedback and review from customers, we would love to see it.
