Are you a commercial leader with a passion for hair and beauty? Do you have the drive to turn a training environment into a thriving, high-street standard business?
RNN Group is looking for a dynamic Salon Manager to lead our commercial salon, Innovate S65. This isn't just a management role; it’s a chance to shape the next generation of industry professionals while driving real commercial growth.
As Salon Manager, you will lead and grow the College’s commercial hair salon located within Rotherham Town Centre, operating as a public-facing business while supporting learner industry experience.
About the Role
As the Salon Manager, you will be the heartbeat of our commercial operations. You will balance the fast-paced demands of a professional salon with the rewarding responsibility of developing future talent within the industry. You’ll be hands-on from day one; opening the premises, managing daily bookings, and ensuring every client receives an outstanding experience.
This is an exciting time to join us. As our commercial model evolves and expands into new spaces, you will be the lead architect of that growth, ensuring our facilities remain safe, compliant, and profitable.
The role is based within the College’s commercial hair salon located in Rotherham Town Centre, operating as a public-facing retail salon separate from the main college campus.
Key Responsibilities
Operational Excellence: Lead the daily running of the salon, managing stock control, pricing, and hygiene standards to professional industry levels.
Commercial Growth: Drive income generation through innovative retail strategies, client retention plans, and trend-led service offers.
Learner Development: Work alongside our teaching teams to assess students, providing the industry-informed feedback they need to turn from learners into professionals.
Safety & Compliance: Act as the site lead for safeguarding (DSL) and Health & Safety, ensuring a secure environment for both the public and our learners.
Financial Control: Oversee cash handling, daily reconciliation, and performance tracking against income targets.
You will…
We need a proactive leader who isn't afraid of a challenge. You should be someone who can bridge the gap between "educational priorities" and "commercial success."
Experienced Manager: Proven track record in a salon or commercial environment in the capacity as manager and/or owner.
Qualifications: You must hold a Level 3 within a vocationally relevant qualification and ideally an Assessors Award (CAVA/A1) qualification. Support will be given to enhance your academic development further, where you do not currently possess all of the required qualifications needed including a teaching qualification. Candidates with strong commercial industry experience who are willing to undertake teaching and assessor qualifications will be supported to do so.
Business Minded: A "growth mindset" with the ability to identify new income streams and retail opportunities.
Safety Conscious: A commitment to safeguarding (or a willingness to work towards DSL status) and First Aid.
Flexible Leader: Ready to work evenings and Saturdays to meet the needs of a modern commercial business.
This is a unique opportunity to lead a salon through a period of expansion and change. You will have a direct impact on the local economy by preparing students for the workforce and building a reputable brand within the community.
We understand that no candidate will perfectly match every qualification or criterion listed. If your experience differs from what we've outlined but you believe you can contribute to this role, we encourage you to apply!
