Sephora is on its way to Brentwood, taking over the former Columbia Sportswear space inside Brentwood Place Shopping Center at 330 Franklin Road. The French beauty retailer, part of the LVMH luxury conglomerate, is already recruiting for the location, with a full-time store manager listing posted under the store name and number TN-Brentwood Place (2690).
The job listing on LVMH's careers site requires on-site work at the Franklin Road address and lists an annual base salary range of $76,100 to $88,500 for the manager role, according to the LVMH job posting. The listing notes it will remain posted for a minimum of five days, though it does not specify how many additional employees Sephora plans to bring on for the new store. As Williamson Source reports, Sephora is expected to open in early 2027, though an exact opening date has not been announced.
Awnings Swapping From Blue to Black
The move into Brentwood Place was flagged when the Brentwood Planning Commission reviewed plans for exterior storefront modifications at the site last month, per Williamson Source. Management Resource Systems, Inc., a High Point, North Carolina-based firm, submitted the plans on Sephora's behalf. The proposed changes are limited to the storefront's appearance, swapping the current blue awnings for black ones.
Citizen Portal also covered the filing, reporting that Sephora will occupy the former Columbia store in Brentwood Shopping Center, with the only notable alteration being the awning color change from blue to black, according to the Citizen Portal report. Details on whether the Brentwood Planning Commission approved the alteration were not available.
Joining an Established Shopping Center
Once open, Sephora will bring its lineup of makeup, skincare, fragrances, haircare and beauty products from national and international brands to a shopping center that already includes Big Bad Breakfast, which is currently open at Brentwood Place, according to Williamson Source. The addition continues to build out the retail mix at the Franklin Road location.
Interested applicants can apply for employment at Sephora as the retailer staffs up ahead of its planned early 2027 opening. No further details on hiring timelines or additional positions were included in the available listings.
