Salon Coordinator
About Siren Salon
Siren Salon is an upscale hair salon in the heart of Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood. We are known for our editorial approach to color, cuts, and extensions — and for delivering an exceptional client experience every single visit. We’re looking for a polished, people-first Salon Coordinator who understands that the front desk sets the tone for everything.
The Role
This is not an entry-level position. As our Salon Coordinator, you are the first impression of Siren — and we take that seriously. You’ll manage the flow of our salon, greet clients, handle scheduling, process transactions, and make sure every guest feels welcomed and cared for from the moment they arrive.
