Full job description

Senior Animal Welfare Assistant

We are seeking a Senior Animal Welfare Assistant to join our established, professional boarding facility.

This is a genuine step up opportunity for an experienced animal care professional who is ready to take increased responsibility within a structured, high-standard environment.

This is not an entry-level position.

Responsibilities

You will play a key operational role within a busy, disciplined boarding environment where standards are non-negotiable.

Responsibilities include:

Maintaining strict hygiene and biosecurity standards
Feeding, medication administration and accurate record keeping
Health and behavioural monitoring
Implementing structured care plans and enrichment
Confident handling of dogs of all sizes and temperaments
Identifying welfare concerns promptly and escalating appropriately
Supporting daily team coordination during peak periods
Leading by example and upholding operational standards
This role includes front-of-house responsibilities. You must be confident interacting with customers, handling enquiries and representing the business professionally, particularly during busy seasonal periods.

This is a physically demanding role involving cleaning, lifting and being on your feet for most of the day.

Essential Skills & Requirements

Minimum Level 2 Animal Welfare qualification (or equivalent hands-on experience)
Minimum 1 year experience within kennels, cattery boarding, dog training or similar
Clear, confident written and verbal communication skills
Ability to communicate professionally with customers and colleagues
Accurate record keeping and strong attention to detail
Confident dog handling skills
Physically fit and capable
Full driving license
Reliable transport

We are a small, close-working team where standards and dependability matter. The successful candidate will demonstrate maturity, professionalism and consistent reliability.

Future Progression

For the right candidate, this role offers a clear pathway towards future supervisory responsibility, including greater involvement in team coordination and operational standards management.

We are looking for someone who sees animal care as a long-term career, not a stop gap.

Working Pattern

Animal care operates 365 days a year.

This role includes:

Regular weekend work
Bank Holidays
Easter, Summer, half terms, Christmas & New Year
Shift work
Early starts and late finishes
Restricted holiday during peak periods

If you cannot work weekends consistently or require fixed weekday-only hours, please do not apply.

Application Process

To be considered, applicants must submit:

CV
A covering letter explaining their suitability for a senior progression role

As this role involves customer communication and accurate welfare record keeping, applications must demonstrate clear written communication skills.

Applications without a covering letter will not be considered.

Shortlisted candidates will attend a taster day prior to formal offer.

Job Types: Full-time, Part-time, Permanent

Pay: £13.25-£14.25 per hour

Benefits:

Employee discount
On-site parking
