Overview
Our Assistant Stylists are critical to the success of our Pets Grooming salons. You'll deliver the very highest standard of pet care, whilst demonstrating a basic understanding of technical concepts relating to preparing and clipping of a dog for grooming, including handling techniques, using equipment, and pre-grooming preparation.
Responsibilities
* Deliver a high standard of pet care in a grooming environment and support the grooming team as needed.
* Display a passion for delivering great service.
