Position to Start After New Year
You Must be Willing to:
START with little to no clients. Let's be honest here, this is how it works in any service based industry. We can work out a schedule if you still need to work somewhere else part time while building clientele. We book two to three weeks in advance during July - August.
SHOW UP TO WORK DAILY and perform 100%, clearheaded, clear-minded, ready to work while taking personal responsibility for your actions inside and outside the shop. I am client focused and based. You get an opportunity to set your own hours.
NO DRAMA - We are small and integrated team, we help and trust each other. I will NOT tolerate gossip, drama (personal or professional), tardiness etc. We are professionals and will only work with those who want to improve their careers and consider themself a professional. You will have control of your schedule however, the owner will book open appointments.
SELF STARTER - MUST DO ALL ASPECTS OF JOB WITHOUT HELP. Yes, of course we are there for assistance but as a groomer you must be able to handle your job without extra hands. Team lifting is important for safety! You must be able to groom dogs within a specified amount of time. A Shih Tzu should only be 75 mins start to finish, 90 max. I do need a groomer who can groom at a decent pace. ALL BREEDS AND SIZES ARE A MUST. We groom a lot of medium to large size dogs and require all staff to handle all sizes. Do not ask if you can just groom small dogs. Cats are not required but would be great!
