What you’ll be doing

Reporting to the Beauty Assistant Manager, you’ll work across many premium beauty brands, guiding your team to offer expert, unbiased advice that helps customers find products that genuinely work for them across skincare, makeup and haircare.

  • Use your product allowance to test and recommend your favourite finds
  • Create standout experiences through confident customer conversations
  • Bring new product and brand launches to life, creating buzz and excitement across the store
  • Keep the beauty hall and counters stocked and spotless
  • Attend brand training, immersive learning events and our famous virtual and in-person conferences
  • Get involved in social content, events and campaigns


What you’ll need to have (our must-haves)

  • A real passion for beauty, skincare, haircare and helping people feel their best
  • Proven experience leading a team to success
  • A warm, confident approach to starting conversations with customers
  • Experience meeting and exceeding sales goals and influencing others to do the same
  • Strong communication skills and an ability to understand people’s needs
  • Curiosity and a proactive attitude to learning new techniques and products


It would be great if you also have

  • Experience working in beauty retail or target-based roles
  • An interest in creating social content

Whether you’re ready to grow into a Beauty Assistant Manager role, step into store leadership, join our talented beauty training crew or explore opportunities in our Nottingham-based Support Office, the possibilities are wide open. Wherever you want to go, we’ll support you every step of the way to build a brilliant career you’re proud of.
