About Us:
At Pets at Home, we’re passionate about pets, and it shows. Our Pet Care Centres across the UK include grooming salons, retail stores, and veterinary practices, all dedicated to delivering the very best care for pets and the people who love them.
We believe in creating welcoming, supportive environments where team members can thrive. If you share our love for pets and our commitment to excellence, we’d love to meet you.
The Role:
Our Assistant Stylists are crucial to the success of our Pets Grooming salons. You will deliver the highest standard of pet care, demonstrating a basic understanding of grooming techniques, including handling, equipment use, and pre-grooming preparation.
We will provide training, skills, and knowledge to ensure you can offer service that aligns with our goal of being the 'Best Pet Care Business in the World'. You will enjoy a competitive salary and benefit from comprehensive training and development, including our Earn as You Learn programmes and additional pay enhancements.
Who We’re Looking For:
* Individuals passionate about delivering excellent service.
* Flexible workers able to work a shift pattern across 6 days a week (closed on Sundays). You will have a minimum contract of 39 hours but may work more during busy periods or holidays.
* Experience working with or handling dogs in a professional grooming or pet care environment is desirable but not essential. Please note that bathing and prepping your own dog does not qualify as professional experience.
* Experience in a customer-facing role is preferred.
* Experience in a target-driven environment is a plus, but not required.
Why Join Us?
We reward and recognize our colleagues in meaningful ways. Our benefits support your mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing, including:
* Competitive pay plus commission, subject to targets
* Certified iPet Level 3 training programme and qualification
* 28 days of paid annual leave, increasing to 33 days after 2 years (including bank holidays, pro-rata)

Together, we’re better with pets.
