Most of us love animals of all shapes and sizes but we do require applicants to clearly evidence their previous experience of working with the four-legged ones. We have been tasked to ensure the safety and comfort of all the animals in our care and we need to do that to the highest possible level, so having some similar animal experience would be a true asset.
You will be responsible for maintaining a high level of cleanliness within the ward environment, such as cleaning kennels, exercising patients, washing bowls, laundry, stock maintenance, animal handling, basic care including TPR (temperature, pulse and respiration checks), grooming, feeding and assisting the veterinary team, this is an active role.
