Careers @ Fifty50
Below we have set out how we describe the structure or
mix of employed and self employed 'franchisees' that make
up of members of the hairdressing team.
- Salon Director
- Creative Director
- Senior Stylist
- Stylist
- Graduate Stylist
- Hairdressing Assistant
At the bottom end of the scale where skills, experience
and a sufficient clientele are still being developed we
are keen to employ and develop people who are ambitious
and want to progress as soon as possible. At the top of
the ladder are stylists who have earned the right to benefit
from their skills, talent and had work in partnership with
the brand and share in their business' development. Obviously
there will be people in the middle of the ladder who are
on the cusp and we always work to a solution that best suits
both parties.
We are committed to education, artistic expression and
competition. At whatever level a member of the team is they
can be and are encouraged to join in. Whether that's helping
with training, building their and the salon portfolio or
entering recognised awards there's something for everyone
to get involved in.
Vacancies
We are always interested in talking to people about their
career and ambitions whether you are sill at school thinking
of an Apprenticeship or you are a stylist or more senior
stylist. Every conversation is strictly confidential and
if appropriate away from the salon.

Apprenticeship
What is an apprenticeship?
Apprenticeships enable you to practically learn your trade
as well as studying to gain the theory and enable you to
receive your qualification. They are aimed at young people
aged 16 and over to enable them to earn money whilst gaining
experience in a hairdressing environment. An apprenticeship
in hairdressing will normally involve you working in the
salon every day except when you attend college.
Why do an apprenticeship?
An apprenticeship enables you to earn money whilst working
and gaining qualifications. You can use an apprenticeship
to gain NVQ (National Vocational Qualification) levels,
which is what you need to become a qualified hairdresser.
In addition to that you will also gain experience in the
practical environment as opposed to studying just at college.
We, like most salon owners are usually very keen to take
on apprentices.
Will I enjoy an apprenticeship?
When thinking about undertaking a hairdressing apprenticeship,
you should be certain that this is the career path you wish
to take. You need to be really focussed to be successful
and know that you will need to put in the work and organise
your time really well. You must be prepared to be responsible
for balancing your time at work with studying in order to
get the most out of it; you can't just work in the salon
and not go to college because this doesn't meet the requirements
of an apprenticeship scheme. You should also be prepared
to be able to work as part of a team and as an individual.
How long does an apprenticeship take?
This can vary up to 24 months and is dependent on your own
ability.
