Part Time

$28.00 - $32.00 / hour

Description
This is not your typical Brand Advisor role. Instead of representing several brands across your market, you'll be the dedicated, in-market face of

one

high-profile prestige beauty brand — exclusively.

We're keeping the name under wraps for now, but here's what we can share: it's one of the most anticipated launches in beauty right now, built on education, authenticity, and making great skin and makeup feel approachable for everyone. This is a rare ground-floor opportunity to own a brand's presence in your stores and grow with it from day one.

Because you'll be the sole representative for this brand in your market, we're looking for someone with real Sephora experience, strong existing relationships, and the kind of ownership mindset that turns a launch into a success story.

This is a dedicated role for the Upper Manhattan market area.

More suited for the Lower Manhattan area?

What You'll Do

Serve as the dedicated expert and face of the brand at your assigned Sephora location(s)

Drive sales through expert product education, live demonstrations, and genuine customer connection

Master the brand's full range, story, and technology so you can educate with authority and confidence

Build and nurture strong relationships with Sephora store leadership and staff to keep the brand front and center on the floor

Deliver a consistent, on-brand experience every shift — you own how the brand shows up in your door

Execute launches, events, and in-store activations with energy and polish

Meet and exceed sales goals, taking full ownership of your results

Complete post-shift reporting and stay connected with your Headkount team via the Headkount app (Connecteam)

What You Bring

Established experience working in Sephora , with existing relationships and a strong reputation in-store (required)

A proven track record as a top seller and educator in prestige beauty

Deep product knowledge in skincare and/or makeup

A can-do, positive, accountable attitude — you take ownership and follow through without being asked

Excellent communication skills; polished, professional, and well-presented

Self-motivated and reliable, and comfortable being the sole brand representative in your market

Availability for retail hours, including weekends and key event dates

Must be in good standing with Sephora and able to work in their locations
