SKILLED Irish
hairdressers are being head-hunted for well paid
jobs in Canada this autumn.
A "life-changing" opportunity awaits for 80 hair
stylists and their families at Canada’s leading
chain of hair salons, Diamond Global Recruitment
Group told Inishowen News today.
The salons are seeking creative stylists for
positions in Saskatchewan, Alberta and British
Columbia.
Diamond Global Recruitment, the only Canadian firm
in Ireland, has been hired to find 80 outstanding,
creative hair stylists to work in unisex and
men-only salons.
Stylists will have a chance to meet Canada’s hippest
salon owners in Dublin, Galway and Cork in the first
week of August to show off their cutting and styling
talents. Earnings of up to $80,000 (€55,000) are up
for grabs.
Diamond says successful applicants "will be offered
flexible working hours and excellent industry
standard wages and benefits, equal to their Canadian
colleagues. "Commission on product sales and
significant tips, in the North American tradition,
sweeten the total compensation package."
Canada’s labour shortage, along with a declining
birthrate has created "an environment ripe for
immigration". All stylists will be eligible to apply
for permanent residency after one year employment.
Stephanie Sweeney, a 25 year old stylist from Dublin
who will be moving to Regina, Saskatchewan with her
partner Austin. She said: “We’re very excited about
moving to Canada. It’s been a dream of ours for a
few years now and when the opportunity came up to
interview in Ireland for a job there, I jumped at
the chance."
Diamond Global is looking for stylists with a total
of 36 months salon experience, however, new
graduates with in-salon experience are also welcome.
Successful candidates will commence employment in
October 2014.
Diamond Global Recruitment is accepting applications
now which can be posted directly on their website at
