Join Our Groom Room 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 the best care for pets and their owners.
We create 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 our grooming salons' success. You will deliver high standards of pet care, demonstrating basic technical skills in dog grooming, including handling techniques, equipment use, and pre-grooming preparation.
We will provide training, skills, and knowledge to help you deliver excellent service, aligning with our goal of being the 'Best Pet Care Business in the World'. We offer a competitive salary and support your growth with comprehensive training, including Earn as You Learn programmes and skill-based pay enhancements.
We seek individuals who are:
* Passionate about delivering excellent service.
* Flexible, with the ability to work a flexible shift pattern across 6 days a week (we are closed on Sundays). You will have a minimum contract of 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 setting is desirable but not essential (note: bathing and prepping your own dog does not count as professional experience). Experience in a customer-facing environment is preferred.
* Preferably experienced in target-driven environments, but willing to learn if not.
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)
* Extra day off for your birthday
* Life Assurance – 4 times your 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
We value diversity and encourage everyone to be themselves. Even if your skills and experience don’t perfectly match, your values and behaviors can make a difference. We want to hear from you!
Together, we’re better with pets.
