**We are seeking a passionate individual with a commitment to animal welfare to join our team working in our busy Rehoming Centre.**

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.

Our rehoming centres house thousands of dogs each year until they are able to find a loving new home and the success of our centres wouldn’t be possible without our dedicated team of staff and volunteers; there is a real family-community within each of our centres. Come rain or shine, our team are out in all weathers to make sure the dogs have the best possible life. Dealing with thousands of visitors each month, our rehoming centres are the face of Dogs Trust and we pride ourselves on our staff providing the very best in customer service.

We are seeking an Adoption Adviser to take primary responsibility for working with prospective adopters, assessing their suitability and matching them to dogs appropriate to their circumstances. The post holder will also make one post-adoption call to new adopters to offer the support of the Rehoming Centre team with their new dog and conduct intake assessments for dogs looking for new homes.
