Salon Manager – Premium Hair Salon
£40,000/£50,000
Location: Central London
Hours: Flexibility required across evenings & weekends
We’re looking for an exceptional Salon Manager to lead a premium, high-performing salon. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, client-focused environment and takes real pride in creating an exceptional experience for both guests and the team. As the face of the business, you’ll be responsible for the smooth running of the salon day to day, leading a team of 30+ employees and ensuring the highest standards across operations, service, presentation, and team performance.
We’re looking for someone who is highly organized, detail-focused, confident, and genuinely present on the salon floor. This is not a role for someone who wants to manage from behind a desk; we need a visible leader who knows what is happening in the business at all times.
Key Responsibilities:
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
