- We drive collaborative relationshis and we encourage our team leaders to visit similar sites to understand how we operate across Kip, network with teams and learn/share ideas from peers.
- We offer a structured induction program that trains on all aspects of the role you will need to succeed and feel confident. This is great for individuals with no animal handling experience but a desire to learn on the job

**Extra Perks**:

- Work for a fun and exciting business with a well established reputation and brand.
- You will be a key contributor to providing a high level of service to pets and their parents through care you can genuinely be proud of - and don’t forget the daily pet cuddles

**Duties and Responsibilities**:

- As the Assistant Manager, you will play a crucial role in the day-to-day operations of the site. This includes managing staff, pets, bookings, maintenance, administration and more.
