Join Our Groom Room Team: Assistant Stylist Wanted!
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 critical to the success of our Pets Grooming salons. You'll deliver the highest standard of pet care, demonstrating a basic understanding of grooming techniques, handling, equipment use, and pre-grooming preparation.
We provide training, skills, and knowledge to help you offer service that aligns with our goal of being the 'Best Pet Care Business in the World'. We offer competitive pay, comprehensive training, development opportunities, and skill-based pay enhancements.
Who We’re Looking For:
* People passionate about delivering excellent service.
* Flexible individuals able to work a shift pattern across 6 days a week (we are closed on Sundays). The minimum contract is 39 hours, but additional hours may be required during busy periods, absences, or holidays.
* Experience working with or handling dogs in a professional grooming or pet care environment is desirable but not essential. (Note: bathing and prepping your own dog does not count as professional experience.)
* Experience in a target-driven environment is preferred but not mandatory.
Why Join Us?
We reward and recognize our colleagues in meaningful ways. Our benefits support your mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing, including:
* Attractive pay plus commission, subject to targets
* Certified iPet Level 3 training and qualification
* 28 days paid annual leave, increasing to 33 days after 2 years (including bank holidays, pro-rata)
* An extra day off for your birthday
* Life Assurance: 4 times your annual salary
* Company pension contribution of 4%
* 20% colleague discount across the Group, including 30% off own brand products

Together, we’re better with pets.
