Careers

Nobody has left St. George Barber since we opened, which is why we rarely hire. This year we are adding a fifth chair.

We are looking for barbers who like the quiet part of the job: the talk before the cut, the neck shave at the end, and the client who comes back every two weeks for ten years.
