Join Our Grooming Team: Assistant Stylist Wanted!
About Us:
At Pets at Home, we’re passionate about pets. Our Pet Care Centres across the UK include grooming salons, retail stores, and veterinary practices, all dedicated to delivering exceptional care for pets and their owners.
We believe in creating welcoming, supportive environments where team members can thrive. If you share our love for pets and commitment to excellence, we’d love to meet you.
The Role:
Our Assistant Stylists are vital to the success of our grooming salons. You will deliver high standards of pet care and demonstrate basic technical skills related to dog grooming, including handling techniques, equipment use, and pre-grooming preparation.
We will provide training, skills, and knowledge to help you deliver service aligned with our goal of being the 'Best Pet Care Business in the World'. We offer a competitive base salary and support your growth through comprehensive training, including Earn as You Learn programmes and skill-based pay enhancements.
We’re seeking individuals who are:
* Passionate about providing excellent service.
* Flexible, with the ability to work a variety of shifts across the week to cover busy periods, absences, and holidays.
* Experience working with or handling dogs in a professional grooming or pet care setting is desirable but not essential. (Bathing and prepping your own dog does not qualify as professional experience.)
* Preferably experienced in a customer-facing environment.
Why Join Us?
We value our colleagues and offer benefits that support your wellbeing—mental, emotional, and financial. These include:
* Attractive pay plus commission, subject to targets
* 28 days paid annual leave, increasing to 33 days after 2 years (including bank holidays, pro-rata for contracted hours)
* Extra day off for your birthday
* Life Assurance—4 times your annual salary
* Company pension contribution of 4%
* 20% colleague discount across the Group (Pets at Home, Pets Grooming, Vets for Pets), including 30% off on own brand products
We embrace diversity and encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply. Even if your skills and experience don’t perfectly align, we value your potential and unique contributions.
