Basildon, Essex, United Kingdom Dogs Trust Full time

Passionate about dog training and behaviour? Want to help colleagues across the country ensure our four-legged friends are ready for their forever homes?

We're looking for a Senior Training and Behaviour Advisor to work closely with fantastic behaviour teams across the South East of England region.

About this role:

As Senior Training and Behaviour Advisor, you'll:

  • work closely with staff across the country to ensure dogs in our care have effective, bespoke rehabilitation programmes to meet their needs,
  • provide advice to centre staff in rehoming centres, as well as contributing to the ongoing assessment and rehabilitation of dogs in our care,
  • collaborate with Behaviour Officers to provide bespoke behaviour training,
  • in specific cases, complete independent assessments of dog behaviour to evaluate and understand the best approach.

    About you:

    In this role you'll be mentoring and motivating our Behaviour teams, so you'll need experience of giving regular feedback and supporting colleagues with professional development, while being empathetic to the impacts of working closely with dogs with complex behaviour.. You'll need significant experience of handling challenging dogs and assessing dog behaviour, particularly in a kennel environment. This will be supported by excellent knowledge of dog behaviour and the ability to tailor evidence based, appropriate behaviour plans.

    About Dogs Trust:

    We love dogs. That's why we do whatever we can to make sure every four-legged friend gets the love they deserve. We'll never put a healthy dog down, so our work is focused on helping dogs in need, supporting owners every step of the walk, and creating a better world for dogs in the future. It's what we've been doing since 1891 and how we've grown to become the UK's leading dog charity, helping 12,000 loyal friends find their forever homes every year.

    A full manual driving licence is essential. The role involves monthly travel to our Rehoming Centres in the South East region: Basildon, Canterbury, Harefield, Kenilworth, Loughborough, Snetterton and Shoreham-by-Sea. This role is being offered as a fixed term contract for six months.
