- **Fixed Term Part Time role (34 hours per fortnight)**

**About us**:
The Lost Dogs’ Home is one of Australia’s most iconic animal welfare organisations, dedicated to caring for and rehoming thousands of lost and abandoned dogs and cats each year. We are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of these animals and the community.

**The Role - Animal Attendant**

Due to our peak cat and kitten season, we are seeing a large influx of animals to our shelters. To assist us during this time, we are seeking a permanent Animal Attendant and two temporary Animal Attendants to join our Cranbourne shelter team.

On a typical day as an Animal Attendant, you will clock in at 8:00 am (weekdays) or 7:00 am (weekends). You will review the area(s) you are working in, pick up the equipment needed for the day (radio, ear protection, PPE, etc.), and get started cleaning, feeding, and enriching our animals. You put your animal handling skills to work in our cattery, our kennels, or perhaps while looking after our pocket pets, birds, or other exotics that have come through our doors. As an integral part of our operation, our vets and vet nurses look to you to report any changes in health, or behaviour, and in some cases, to administer medication to our animals. You keep accurate records for all animals you care for. And you’re ready to help identify an animal for a lost and found inquiry if needed.

You might find you have time to tackle some laundry or do a food stock take. On some occasions, you might be doing some driving jobs including transporting animals between our shelter and council partners.

You finish your workday by 4:30 pm knowing you gave each animal you cared for the best chance at a happy healthy life - which is our vision at The Lost Dogs’ Home.
- Note, some Animal Attendants might be rostered on for our later shift which is 10:00 am to 6:00 pm.

**In addition to the above, other duties may include**:

- Moving animals to different locations across the shelter,
- Assisting members of the public with lost and found inquiries,
- Liaising with the public and council officers,
- Maintaining the shelter, including laundry, animal pens and vehicles,
- Keeping up-to-date records of all impounded animals,
- Recording food stock levels.

**Skills and Experience**:

- Experience working with animals in a professional capacity,
- A recognised animal-related qualification/s (desired),
- Excellent customer service skills,
- A current driver's licence,
- Sound emotional maturity and ethics regarding animals and their welfare,
- The ability to display initiative and motivation,
- A reasonable level of fitness and the ability and motivation to work in a physically demanding role.

**Benefits**:

- A purposeful animal welfare career,
- Fantastic career development and opportunities,
- Discounts at our Cranbourne Veterinary Clinic for your pets,
- Access to our Employee Assistance Program,
- Access to the Foster Care Program,
- A unique and friendly working environment (surrounded by animals),
- Rewarding work with animals in need of a forever home.
