Salon Manager – WAXD MT Ommaney Shopping Centre
$66,500 + up to $14,000 in performance bonuses (~$80,500 total potential) | Full-time
Already running a salon in practice, just without the title? Or already a Manager, ready for a brand that's actually going somewhere? Either way — we should talk.
WAXD operates 7 salons across Queensland and we're growing — not stalling, not "steady," growing. That matters if you're weighing up a move: it means genuine progression for the right person.
We're known for high standards, strong training, and a culture where managers are trusted to run their salon like an owner — backed by a brand and support network, not buried in red tape.
Services: Waxing (brows, body, female Brazilian), tinting, spray tanning, makeup.
THE ROLE
You'll run the Mt Ommaney salon day-to-day: you'll have real autonomy to lead, backed by proper support when you need it.
This is the right move if you're:
- An experienced Salon Manager or 2IC elsewhere, ready for more autonomy, a bigger pay ceiling, and a brand actually going somewhere.
- Senior Beauty Therapist already carrying manager-level responsibility, ready to make it official — title, pay and all.
WHY MANAGERS CHOOSE WAXD?
- Autonomy with real backing — run your salon your way, without the red tape
- Bonuses tied to your leadership — earn up to an extra $4/hr in performance-based bonus loading, plus up to $600/month in additional bonus incentives — your results and your team's culture both get rewarded
- A genuine career path — 7 salons means real room to grow as we expand
- Development that means something — ongoing training built for leaders, not a compliance checkbox
- A team worth leading — professional, high standards, good energy
