We’re on the lookout for a friendly, proactive, and animal-loving superstar to join our reception team.
This is your chance to be at the heart of a warm, passionate team that’s all about making a difference, for pets and their people!
You’ll be the welcoming face of our team Thursday and Friday evenings from 17:00 to 21:00, and every weekend from 08:30 to 16:30, keeping things running smoothly and greeting our clients and their furry friends. If you have the flexibility to step in for extra shifts at short notice, that’s a huge plus!
As the first smiling face our visitors see, you’ll be a key part of what makes our practice feel special. If you’re a natural communicator, love a bit of multitasking, and pride yourself on staying calm under pressure, this could be the perfect fit.
