Cattery Welfare and Intake Coordinator

This opportunity is based at our Battersea London centre, working 40 hours a week, including some weekends and bank holidays. As the first point of contact for people reaching out for support from Battersea, you will answer enquiries on our intake lines, offer clear guidance on our policies, and provide supportive, empathetic customer service. You will help schedule cats coming into our care, ensuring we have the information we need before they arrive, and welcome them on-site by settling them into the cattery and recording key behavioural and medical details. You will also play an important role in operating our Lost Cats line, helping reunite pets with their families both within and beyond Battersea. This opportunity is well suited to a compassionate individual with strong customer service skills, looking to make a difference to both the cats coming into our care and the customers we work with., We are also committed to providing learning and development to our employees. During your time with us, we provide support for your professional and career development, including access to digital and in-person training programmes, leadership and management training, mentoring and much more.

Working with our rescues is a very rewarding experience. Your work plays a vital role in giving our dogs and cats a chance at finding their forever home. Everyday will be different and will come with its own unique challenges. We are looking for people with the resilience and adaptability to handle all aspects of this role. It is important to note that the role does involve a lot of physical tasks which are required to provide the exceptional standards of care to our animals.

• 36 days of annual leave (inclusive of 8 days Bank Holiday leave allowance) per year for full time employees (pro-rated for part-time employees).
