Join a locally owned Great Clips® salon team and help deliver a welcoming, comfortable salon experience. As a receptionist, you'll be the first point of contact for customers and a key support for stylists and salon management throughout the day.
If you enjoy helping people, staying organized, and working as part of a team in an energetic, supportive salon environment, this could be a great fit.

*Prepare for a future stylist position after graduation and licensure.
Requirements:

  • Great, reliable hourly wage
  • Flexible scheduling with dependable retail hours
  • A team environment where salon staff help each other succeed
  • The opportunity to create positive connections with customers and teammates while supporting essential salon operations
  • Clear processes and training for front-desk responsibilities

About Great Clips

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

Great Clips, Inc. was established in Minneapolis, Minnesota by founders David Rubenzer and Steve Lemmon in 1982, a time when most people received haircuts in one of three ways: in full-service hair salons, from barbershops or at home. As a stylist and businessman, David could see that the industry was changing. Customers were looking for a hair salon service that could fit their busy lifestyles and desire for value. To be part of that change – rather than find themselves competing with it – David and Steve developed the then-radical concept of a walk-in haircare salon with weekend and evening hours, offering customers a select list of services, and providing benefits for stylists. After the founders opened several successful hair salons, Ray Barton joined David and Steve as an owner in March 1983. With Ray's help and expertise in franchising, the trio set about growing the Great Clips hair salon brand. That success continues through today.
