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 their owners.
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 will deliver the highest standards of pet care, demonstrating basic technical skills related to preparing and clipping dogs for grooming, including handling techniques, equipment use, and pre-grooming preparation.
We will provide you with training, skills, and knowledge to deliver service aligned with our goal of being the 'Best Pet Care Business in the World'. You will enjoy a competitive base salary, along with comprehensive training and development opportunities, including our Earn as You Learn programmes and skill-based pay enhancements.
We’re seeking individuals who are:
* Passionate about delivering excellent service.
* Flexible, with the ability to work a shift pattern across 6 days a week; we are closed on Sundays. You may be required to work additional hours during busy periods, absences, or holidays.
* Experience working with or handling dogs in a professional grooming or pet care setting is desirable but not essential (please note that bathing and prepping your own dog does not count as professional experience). Experience in a customer-facing environment is preferred.
* Familiar with target-driven work environments, or willing to work in one.
Why Join Us?
We value and reward our colleagues in meaningful ways. Our benefits support your mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing. Some benefits 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)
* Additional 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 celebrate diversity and encourage everyone to be themselves. We value different skills and experiences, and if you believe you can contribute through your values and behaviors, we want to hear from you!
Together, we’re better with pets.
