About The Position

Join your locally owned Great Clips® salon team and step into a leadership role where you can make a real impact.

This is not your average management job, and you can still cut hair. Great Clips salons give Salon Managers the opportunity to do what you love, along with the support, structure, and resources to lead confidently and build a strong team culture. As the world's largest salon brand, with over 4,400 locally owned and operated salons across the U.S. and Canada, Great Clips combines strong brand recognition, marketing, and support with a close-knit, team-oriented culture. We're passionate about cutting hair and providing great value for the whole family. Talented teams of skilled professionals, along with convenient hours and a great haircut experience, set us apart in our communities.
