Essential:

  • Substantial vocational experience as a qualified hairdresser or salon professional
  • Level 3 Hairdressing qualification (or equivalent)
  • Strong practical and technical knowledge across cutting, colouring and styling
  • Clear communication skills and enthusiasm for supporting learners

Desirable (but not essential):

  • Experience of teaching, assessing or instructing learners
  • A recognised teaching or assessing qualification, or a willingness to work towards one
