This is a client-focused, sales-driven role where no two days are quite the same.

What You'll Do

Style & Sell

• Lead personalized appointments, helping clients find looks that make them feel confident and excited

• Stay connected with clients and help them with additional garments, accessories, and services as their needs evolve

Be Part of the Team

• Help maintain a polished, welcoming showroom and prepare for upcoming appointments
• Assist with merchandising, inventory, and other day-to-day needs of the salon
• Collaborate with teammates and management to support our clients and continue growing the Van Cleve experience

What We're Looking For

You'll do well in this role if you:

• Enjoy connecting with people and making them feel comfortable
• Are motivated by goals and comfortable working toward sales results
• Can manage your time, stay organized, and take ownership of your responsibilities
• Are professional, reliable, and attentive to the details
• Enjoy working as part of a collaborative and supportive team

Previous experience in sales, retail, hospitality, or another customer-facing role is preferred , but bridal experience is not required. We'll teach the right person about our collections, styling approach, and the Van Cleve experience!

Bonus Points

An interest in social media, photography, video, or storytelling is a plus! We love team members who enjoy helping capture and share the special moments that happen at Van Cleve.
