About this role
Headkount is hiring Brand Advisors to represent established beauty and skincare lines at major retailers like Sephora and Ulta throughout Austin. You'll work part-time on a W-2 basis—meaning steady hours and pay without the uncertainty of traditional freelance gigs—while maintaining the variety that draws people to contract work in the first place. The role involves rotating across multiple brands and store locations, so no two shifts are identical.
Your days will center on driving sales, educating store staff on products and techniques, merchandising displays, and hosting in-store events. You'll need at least two years of experience in beauty retail, freelance brand work, or similar roles, plus a track record of hitting sales targets and running events. The position requires weekend availability and reliable transportation across Austin, along with basic comfort using the Headkount app to log shifts and stay connected with the team.
This suits someone who thrives on variety and independence but values the security of consistent paychecks and employer support. Headkount provides training, ongoing brand education, and a community of beauty professionals—resources that distinguish this from pure 1099 freelancing. Hourly pay ranges from $25 to $30 based on experience.
