Level 3/4 Beauty Therapist & Salon Manager (Aesthetics)

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING

This is a hands\-on leadership role. You will deliver high\-end treatments AND run the salon like an operator — managing standards, team performance, bookings, client experience, revenue, and retention.

This role requires strong leadership alongside technical excellence. If you are looking for a treatment\-only position without management responsibilities, this will not be the right fit.

ABOUT BELGRAVE COSMETICS

Belgrave Cosmetics is a luxury Aesthetic clinic in Bristol offering advanced aesthetic treatments. Our services include body sculpting (fat freezing, cavitation, radio frequency skin tightening), advanced facials, laser hair removal, HIFU, and bespoke packages — delivered with premium client care and uncompromising standards.

We are building an elite salon culture. Every hire, every system, and every client interaction is designed to be best\-in\-class. This role exists because we refuse to plateau.

THE MISSION YOU’LL OWN

Run the salon at elite standards while delivering exceptional treatments, tight diary, five\-star client journey, coached team, clean systems, and consistent growth.

You are the operator. You own the performance of the treatment floor, the energy of the team, and the experience every client walks away with. If something needs fixing, you fix it. If something is working, you optimise it. If the standard slips, you catch it before anyone else does.

OUTCOMES YOU’LL BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR

These are the results you will be measured against on a weekly and monthly basis.

OUTCOME

WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE IN PRACTICE

Diary Utilisation

Minimal gaps, smart scheduling, and strong follow\-up. You treat empty appointment slots as revenue opportunities and close them proactively.

Rebooking \& Retention

Clients leave with their next appointment booked. Rebooking rate improves monthly. You track it, coach the team on it, and own the results.

Team Standards

Punctuality, presentation, consistency, hygiene, and service quality are maintained at all times. You lead by example and hold the line.

Revenue Growth

Ethical upselling, packages, memberships, and retail. Revenue is protected and grown through well\-structured client journeys.

Clean Operations

Stock, rooms, compliance, and SOPs run smoothly. The salon operates efficiently with no last\-minute scrambling.

WHAT YOU’LL DO (DAY\-TO\-DAY)

SALON MANAGEMENT \& LEADERSHIP

• Lead day\-to\-day operations including opening, closing, workflows, standards, hygiene, and presentation


• Coach and develop therapists through training, feedback, performance conversations, and leading by example

• Handle client enquiries and feedback professionally to protect retention and reputation

You will deliver a range of treatments, including but not limited to:

• Specialist facials and advanced aesthetics

• Laser hair removal


• HIFU

Essential (Required)

• Level 3/4 Beauty Therapy qualification (or equivalent)


• Proven experience in a senior therapist, salon manager, or team lead role


• Strong technical ability across a broad service menu (not a single\-treatment specialist)


• Demonstrated leadership ability: coaching, giving constructive feedback, and maintaining standards


• Strong organisational skills: rotas, systems, stock management, checklists, and follow\-through


• Client\-first mindset with premium service instincts and professional communication

• Track record of improving rebooking rates, client retention, diary utilisation, or revenue per client


• Experience with packages, memberships, retail performance, and standards training

We hire people who take full ownership of their results. The ideal candidate for this role demonstrates the following qualities:

QUALITY

WHAT IT MEANS IN THIS ROLE

Ownership

You see a problem, you fix it. You don’t wait to be told. The salon is your operation and you take full responsibility for its performance.

Coachability

You implement feedback quickly and constructively. You are open to learning and focused on continuous improvement.

Resilience

Challenging client situations, staff issues, and operational problems don’t knock you off course. You solve problems with a calm, solutions\-focused approach.

Drive

You are self\-motivated and proactive. Nobody needs to chase you for updates, effort, or results.

Curiosity

You stay current with treatments and industry trends, bring new ideas to the table, and continuously raise the bar for yourself and the team.
