Salon Receptionist
Substance Salon | Rutherford, NJ
Full-time | $21–$25 per hour, based on relevant experience and demonstrated skills

Substance Salon is looking for a friendly, confident, and organized receptionist who enjoys working with people and takes initiative.

You’ll be the first point of contact for our clients—answering calls, responding to texts, booking appointments, and welcoming guests. A key part of your role is following up with prospective clients and helping turn inquiries into booked appointments.

What you’ll do:

  • Answer calls and respond to client texts promptly and professionally.

  • Schedule and confirm appointments accurately.

  • Follow up with new inquiries, missed calls, and clients who haven’t completed their booking.

  • Make outbound calls to fill cancellations, contact waitlisted clients, and encourage rebooking.

  • Welcome guests, check clients in and out, and process payments.

  • Handle scheduling changes and client concerns with professionalism and care.

  • Keep client records, follow-up tasks, and the daily appointment schedule organized.

What we’re looking for:

  • Previous receptionist, front desk, or appointment-scheduling experience.

  • Confident, professional communication by phone, text, and in person.

  • Comfort making outbound calls and helping clients choose and book services.

  • Strong computer skills and the ability to learn booking and payment systems.

  • Dependability, punctuality, attention to detail, and consistent follow-through.

  • The ability to prioritize during busy periods while making clients feel welcome.

Salon experience is required. Experience in a spa, medical or dental office, hospitality, or another appointment-based business is welcome. Zenoti experience is a plus.

Schedule: Full-time, 35–40 hours per week. Some evenings and Saturdays required. This position is on-site in Rutherford, NJ.

To apply: Submit your résumé and a brief message describing your relevant experience, weekly availability, and earliest start date. We are scheduling interviews immediately.
