Join Our Grooming 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 vital 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 offer excellent service. You'll enjoy a competitive base pay and growth opportunities through our training programs, including Earn as You Learn and skill-based pay enhancements.
We’re seeking individuals who are:
* Passionate about delivering great service.
* Flexible, with the ability to work a shift pattern across 6 days a week (closed on Sundays). The minimum contract is 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 environment 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 role is preferred.
* Preferably experienced in target-driven environments, but we welcome those willing to work in one.
Why Join Us?
We reward and recognize our colleagues in meaningful ways. Our benefits support your mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing, including:
* 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, including 30% off on own brand products
We value diversity and inclusion, embracing people from all walks of life. We encourage our team to be their best selves, creating a better world for Pets, our Planet, and People. We aim to reflect the communities we serve and remove barriers to opportunity. Even if your skills don’t align perfectly, if you can contribute through your values and behaviors, we want to hear from you!
Together, we’re better with pets.
