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 and exceptional service 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 essential to the success of our Pets Grooming salons. You'll deliver the highest standards 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 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 through comprehensive training and development, 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 shift pattern across 6 days a week (we are closed on Sundays). You will receive a minimum of 39 hours, with additional hours during busy periods, absences, or holidays.
* Experience with 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 qualify as professional experience). Experience in a customer-facing role is preferred.
* Familiar with target-driven environments, or 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. Some of our benefits include:
* Attractive pay plus commission, subject to targets
* 28 days paid annual leave, increasing to 33 days after 2 years (including 8 bank holidays, pro-rata based on contracted hours)
* An extra day off for your birthday
* Life Assurance – 4 times your annual salary
* Company pension contribution of 4%
