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 vital to the success of our Pets Grooming salons. You will deliver high standards of pet care, demonstrating basic technical skills related to dog grooming, including handling techniques, equipment use, and pre-grooming preparation.
We will provide training, skills, and knowledge to help you deliver service aligned with our goal of being the 'Best Pet Care Business in the World'. We offer a competitive base salary, comprehensive training, development opportunities, and skill-based pay enhancements through our Earn as You Learn programmes.
We’re seeking individuals who are:
* Passionate about delivering excellent service.
* Flexible, with the ability to work a flexible shift pattern across 6 days a week (closed on Sundays). You may be required to work additional hours during busy periods, absences, and 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.
* Familiar with target-driven environments is a plus, but not mandatory if you are willing to work in one.
Why Join Us?
We value and reward our colleagues through benefits that support your mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing. Benefits may 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)
* An extra 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 your own pet’s grooming
We celebrate diversity and believe pets see no bias. We aim to reflect the communities we serve and encourage everyone to be themselves. If you think you can contribute through your values and behaviors, we want to hear from you!
Together, we’re better with pets.
