Summary

Sparkle Grooming Co. is seeking a Grooming Manager to launch our brand-new Montclair location. This is a rare opportunity to build your own team from scratch, hand-selecting the groomers you want to work with and establishing the culture of a premier new salon.

  • Mission-Driven Care: At Sparkle, our mission is to improve the quality of life for the pets we serve. We prioritize routine wellness and safety over "churning" appointments, ensuring every dog gets the patient, high-quality care they deserve.

Duties + Responsibilities

  • Recruit & Onboard: Hand-select and train your team of Groomers, ensuring they meet your high standards for quality and care.
  • Lead by Example: Perform dog grooming services to breed standards while holding your team accountable to those same benchmarks.
  • Safety First: Ensure the safety and well-being of every pet and associate, taking immediate action whenever necessary.
  • Grow the Business: Assist in setting and achieving monthly goals for sales and memberships.

  • Management: Experience running full-service grooming salons, including sales and inventory management.
  • Technical Mastery: Strong knowledge of individual breed standards, breed cuts, and proper scissoring techniques.
  • Education: Strong teacher of grooming skills with a knack for developing others.

Compensation + Benefits

  • Base Salary: $65,000–$75,000.
  • Performance Bonuses: Bonuses tied directly to salon performance and growth goals.
  • Healthcare: Comprehensive health insurance.
  • Time Off: 10 days PTO + paid holidays.
