If you enjoy working with animals, can handle a busy day, and want to be part of a team that genuinely has each other’s backs, this could be the perfect fit.

  • Are comfortable being on your feet, performing physical tasks, and keeping up in a fast-paced environment
  • Pay attention to detail and understand the importance of safety procedures and animal care protocols

Availability matters! Open availability is a big plus. We understand that life happens, and we're willing to discuss accommodating a specific day off when possible. The more flexible your schedule, the easier it is to coordinate coverage.

Schedule & Shift Information

Scheduling will depend on staffing needs and coverage requirements. We’ll discuss availability and scheduling expectations during the hiring process.

Flexibility with mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays is important. We’ll do our best to accommodate scheduling requests when possible.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
