Working in a fast‑paced, fully office‑based environment, you'll balance a high volume of inbound and outbound calls, email enquiries and administration with the practical side of pet aftercare. From coordinating collections and managing client information to preparing pets for viewings, this is a hands‑on role that requires emotional resilience, attention to detail and a strong work ethic.

About the Role

No two days will be the same, and you'll be responsible for a combination of customer service, administration and operational support, including:

Managing a high volume of inbound and outbound calls, email enquiries and online requests in a timely and professional manner.

Supporting clients who may be experiencing grief, frustration or distress, providing compassionate service while maintaining professionalism.

Completing accurate data entry, processing payments and maintaining client and veterinary clinic records.

Coordinating pet collections, bookings and communication between clients, veterinary clinics and internal teams.

Customer service experience: You're confident managing a high volume of calls and emails, handling enquiries and navigating challenging conversations with empathy and professionalism.

Emotional resilience: You can remain calm and composed when dealing with clients who may be grieving, upset or frustrated, while continuing to deliver a high standard of service.

A hands‑on approach: You're happy to get involved in all aspects of the role, including the practical preparation and handling of deceased pets for viewings.

Reliability and consistency: You're dependable, punctual and committed to being a valued member of a close‑knot operational team.

Strong communication skills: You can communicate clearly, follow processes and work collaboratively with clients, veterinary clinics and internal stakeholders.

Experience in a veterinary clinic or the animal care industry would be highly regarded. Candidates with backgrounds in busy call centres, customer service or administration will also be considered, provided they have the right temperament and are comfortable with the practical aspects of pet aftercare.
