Job Description

Job DescriptionAbout Us:

Kate Somerville Skincare is a clinical-grade beauty and skincare brand founded in 2004 by celebrity esthetician Kate Somerville.

Role overview

As a Freelance Beauty Advisor, you represent Kate Somerville in Ulta Beauty stores during events, blitz days, and coverage shifts. Your two most important goals on every shift are to meet or exceed your sales goal and to give every client an exceptional customer experience. You'll educate Ulta guests on our clinical skincare, recommend the right regimen for their skin, and help build excitement for the brand in your territory.

Freelance shifts are booked as needed, with most work centered on peak retail days, including weekends, key events, and launches.

Key responsibilities

• Provide skin consultations and product demonstrations, recommending regimens matched to each client's skin concerns.

• Stay current on the product line, launches, and in-store promotions; complete all required brand training before your first shift.

• Support in-store events, blitzes, and launches, including setup, sampling, and breakdown.

• Keep testers and displays neat and up to brand standards during your shift.

• Partner with store beauty associates and management to support Kate Somerville sales.

• Submit a shift recap after every booking, including sales, units, top sellers, and client feedback.

• Comfortable engaging clients, giving skin consultations, and closing sales.

• Able to stand for an entire shift and travel to assigned doors in your territory.

• Reliable transportation and a smartphone for shift recaps.

• Completion of Kate Somerville product training before your first booking.

What success looks like

• You consistently meet or exceed the sales goal for every booked shift.

• You deliver great customer service: every client feels welcomed, listened to, and leaves with a regimen that fits their skin.

• You arrive on time and submit a recap after every shift.

• Store teams see you as a knowledgeable, reliable brand partner and ask for you back.
