Director of National Retail Education - Events
Description
We’re looking for a beauty education powerhouse to lead our retail education and events strategy across our key retail partners, Sephora and Ulta Beauty. As the National Retail Director of Education & Events, you’ll be the ultimate brand storyteller, inspiring field teams, sales associates, and beauty advisors with compelling, hands-on education programs that elevate our brand presence—and drive results.
This role sits at the heart of Living Proof’s retail engine, shaping the way our brand shows up on the sales floor, in training rooms, and at major events. Reporting directly to the SVP of Retail Sales & Trade Marketing, you’ll bring energy to a team of sales & education managers and coordinators across North America, working cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, Product Development, and International Education to ensure that Living Proof is the most talked-about haircare brand in the aisles of Sephora and Ulta.
You’ll also help to redesign our field sales onboarding education process, ensuring every new hire—from full time sales & education managers to freelancers—gets immersed in Living Proof's science, story, and standards from day one.
If you're passionate about hair care, know how to connect with beauty lovers of all levels, and can turn education into sales, this is your moment.
