Do you have experience of canine hydrotherapy and physiotherapy? Are you well organised and an excellent communicator, with a genuine passion for dog welfare?

Dogs Trust is the largest dog welfare charity in the UK with a nationwide network of rehoming centres and charity shops. Last year, Dogs Trust centres cared for over 15,000 dogs; we never put a healthy dog down.

We are now recruiting for a qualified physiotherapist and hydrotherapist to manage the cases we see at our Basildon Rehoming Centre. The hydrotherapy unit (water treadmill) has a dual purpose; to manage clinical conditions from a therapeutic perspective and to serve as environmental enrichment for longer term dog residents. Cases will be referred by the centre Veterinary Surgeon, in conjunction with our centre behaviour team.

To be successful in this role you will be an enthusiastic person with excellent interpersonal and team skills and the ability to interact effectively both with the public and your colleagues. You should be motivated by the aims and objectives of Dogs Trust, and will have appropriate qualifications and experience of canine physiotherapy and hydrotherapy.

Travel to other Dogs Trust Rehoming Centres may be required in this role, so a full manual driving licence is a must.
