what we do. and why we do it.

the hair & beauty industry is projected to generate a revenue of $646.20bn in 2024, and that’s no small chunk of pocket change. even during times of economic hardship, people prioritize beauty services. why? because of the way it makes them feel.

the human element is the big ol’ best part about this industry - building strong relationships and genuinely making people feel good; that’s what we’re all about. creative, out-of-the box thinkers who work hard, stay curious and love change. 

you need contagious energy, a growth mindset and the ability to get sh*t done to do well here.  we have a big, rebellious personality and we do things a bit differently. we never micro manage, but we do expect results. that means summit is not for everyone, and we’re ok with that. if you’re looking for a more status quo corporate setting, or consider work as a means to an end, you might not love it here; after all, a shared passion is what helps us keep pace. if you appreciate a fast paced, yet fun culture, hard, yet rewarding work (with a sprinkle of party), and the opportunity to create impact – then summit is for you.

 

the Assigment…

“bringing beauty experts to the top, one bottle of hairspray at a time.”


basically, we’re here for the beauty pros. the small businesses that enhance our communities, improve people’s self-confidence and inspire creativity. we support local artists and entrepreneurs by helping them to better their businesses and their teams. we’re hair for the little guys and the mid-size guys (you know, the real-live-people doing a happy dance when you book with them.) this is rewarding work that directly impacts the lives of our clients and the individuals they service. products are what we sell, but people are our priority.

 

great perks, greater peeps

not to be dramatic but customer service is the literal lifeline of our *entire* flippin’ operations (and not just for those aspects of our business that involve face-to-face contact). that’s why we look to employ genuinely nice and happy people who share the same values. if that’s you, check out some of the roles we have available and let us know which tickles your fancy most:

GIVESUM

we support our communities with an initiative we like to call givesum – get it!?
basically we rotate between different charities, across the provinces we operate, to support a variety of causes near and dear to us. from families in need, to animals, to spreading the gift if good hair - we welcome our community get involved in keeping the spirit of giving alive the whole year round. from the bottom of our hearts to the tips of our toes, we love spreading good vibes, so everyone grows.  <3
