Duties

This is a developmental opportunity, no experience necessary. Accredited training will be provided to support your career.

You’ll play a key role in caring for animals and ensuring their well-being, from feeding, cleaning and exercise, to health monitoring and enrichment. Every task you do helps create a safe, healthy and happy environment for animals in need, while supporting the smooth running of a busy rescue centre.
This is a practical, rewarding role where no two days are the same. You’ll work closely with our team, volunteers and the public, ensuring each animal receives the highest standard of care and kindness.
