**We are seeking a passionate individual with a commitment to animal welfare to join the team at our busy Transfer Centre in Penrith as a Transfer Centre Canine Assistant.**

Dogs Trust is the UK’s largest dog welfare charity and normally cares for around 14,000 dogs across its network of 21 rehoming centres in the UK and one in Dublin. Dogs Trust has a non-destruction policy and will never put a healthy dog to sleep.

The Transfer Centre at Penrith is an integral part of the Operations department and cares for approximately 1,500 dogs per year. The centre exists to:

- Provide overnight rest and accommodation for dogs travelling from stray pounds in Northern Ireland, North West England and Scotland;
- Collect unclaimed stray dogs from pounds in Cumbria, Ayrshire, Lothian, Fife (and other areas as required), and facilitate the safe onward transfer of the dogs to Rehoming Centres, primarily in Scotland and the North of England;
- Support the central Logistics team and assist with outbound transfers from the Transfer Centre to Dogs Trust Rehoming Centres;
- Support internal transfers from our Centre in Northern Ireland to Rehoming Centres in Scotland and the North of England, by providing safe transport between locations. This will involve a night away from home;
- Develop the Home from Home (HfH) fostering project, carrying out home visits and transfers for potential foster carers and adopters, and rehoming dogs through our fostering network.

Normal hours in this role are 40 per week. The expected working pattern would be 5 shifts per week, which may include some late shifts (11am - 8pm). Weekend working will be agreed with the line manager and is likely to be at least two weekends per month. The rota can require you to work on Bank Holidays. The role will also include night duties (5pm-8am), which will require staying on-site in staff accommodation. This role will involve some lone working.
