Job Description

If you enjoy providing great service and working in a team, we have just the opportunity for you at our Rochdale Vets for Pets Practice.

What your typical day will look like

Your focus is to provide an exceptional service to our clients and the best care possible to their pets - providing a link between clients and the clinical team. Your ability to build strong relationships with our clients, their pets and the practice team will be critical to your success.


Your great client service during a client's visit will make sure that their absolute satisfaction is given, and that the client leaves knowing that they have received exceptional service and look forward to their next visit.


You will be the first point of contact for clients, providing a warm welcome along with professional support, guidance, and expertise. You'll confidently handle payments and manage future appointments through our online booking system, so strong computer skills are essential. The role also involves helping to ensure the smooth daily operation of the practice. Familiarity with social media is a plus, as is the emotional resilience to support clients through both their highs and lows.

We have 2 part time positions available working 30 hours per week, including 1 in 4 Saturday shifts. We are looking for someone who can be flexible with their hours as you will be required to work early and late shifts between 8:30am to 7:30pm during the week. We value work life balance and all colleagues work no more than 4 days a week.

The attributes required:

You are the friendly and welcoming face for the client and their pets when they arrive at the practice. You are able to provide guidance by keeping yourself fully up-to-speed with the practice services and any additional services available. You are calm, attentive and always focus on the clients' needs. You will bring enthusiasm and drive to your role. Your passion for service is matched with your love of pets. You can deal with everything that is thrown at you, from comforting a client who has had some bad news about their pet or sharing in the joy of a new puppy's first visit to the vet. Your personality is infectious and along with your fellow colleagues, you create a welcoming and friendly atmosphere in the practice.

In short, you like to be busy, enjoy helping people and their pets and always endeavour to make a difference.

Benefits

In return, we offer such benefits as 20% discount at the Vet Group, Pets at Home and the Groom Room, access to discounts and cashbacks, in-house career development opportunities, pension and holiday allowance. The salary for this role is 12.21 per hour.


We want our colleagues to be as diverse as our clients. Our teams are inclusive and celebrate difference so if you meet our role requirements, we'd love to hear from you.

Application end date: 1st of August 2025. Please be advised that interviews will be held at the beginning of August 2025
