At Drybar, our philosophy is simple: Focus on one thing and be the BEST at it! For us, that’s BLOWOUTS. Our tagline says it all: NO CUTS. NO COLOR. JUST BLOWOUTS! Drybar is the COOLEST place to grow your career in the hair salon, spa, cosmetology, and beauty industry...
 
We are seeking a Salon Manager with a background in cosmetology or the beauty industry to lead daily operations, support a team of stylists and front desk associates, and deliver an exceptional client experience.

This role is perfect for someone who is ambitious, dreams of growth, thrives off of juggling tasks, is always problem solving, and does it all with a smile on their face and a twinkle in their eye.
