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 key to the success of our Pets Grooming salons. You'll 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 help you deliver excellent service. You'll enjoy a competitive pay and opportunities for growth through training and development programs, including our Earn as You Learn schemes and skill-based pay enhancements.
We’re seeking individuals who are:
* Passionate about delivering great service.
* Flexible, with the ability to work a flexible shift pattern across 6 days a week (closed on Sundays). A minimum contract of 39 hours is offered, but additional hours may be required during busy periods, absences, and holidays.
* Experience with dogs in a professional grooming or pet care environment is desirable but not essential. (Bathing and prepping your own dog does not qualify as professional experience). Experience in a customer-facing role is preferred.
* Familiar with target-driven environments is a plus, but not mandatory.
Why Join Us?
We value and reward our colleagues in meaningful ways. Our benefits support your mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing, including:
* Competitive pay plus commission (subject to targets)
* 28 days paid annual leave, increasing to 33 days after 2 years (including bank holidays, pro-rata)
* Additional day off for your birthday
* Life Assurance – 4 times your annual salary
* Company pension contribution of 4%
* Colleague discount of 20% across the Group, including 30% off on own brand products
We celebrate diversity and encourage everyone to be themselves. Even if your skills and experience don’t align perfectly, your values and behaviors can make a difference. We want to hear from you!
Together, we’re better with pets.
