We're looking for casual Kennel Attendants to join our motivated team at Tullamarine.
If you're looking to work hands on with greyhounds, this role is for you.
You will ensure all the daily greyhound needs are met including feeding, watering, cleaning kennels, providing enrichment through playtime, and taking them out for walks.
Our greyhounds will show their appreciation by providing cuddles and kisses each and every day.
While experience working in an animal shelter plus post-secondary studies in animal care/welfare will provide a solid base, it's your knack for building relationships and working with others that will ensure your success.
If you have a Victorian driver license, that will help.
Fun fact! Looks can be deceiving… our greyhounds can weigh up to 40kg, so you must be able to handle large dog breeds in a safe manner.
Our team works every day from 7:30am to 4pm, with weekday and weekend rosters available (so please outline your availability in your covering letter).
Let's talk benefits
When you join our team, you become part of something bigger.
We're all here to make a difference and have fun along the way.
We'll provide you with interesting and rewarding work, helping greyhounds to find their forever home, with ongoing professional development, alongside work-life balance to seal the deal.
We support our people with access to free and fun events such as Midsumma Pride March and the Royal Melbourne Show, free onsite parking, free corporate uniform, and animal friendly workplaces.
