The successful candidate will be working outdoors and could be exercising the Military Working Dogs for up to 14 miles per day, in all seasons and weather conditions.

The role is physical in nature and can be completed as part of a team or by lone working.

This requires you to be responsible for your own health and safety and that of the animals you are providing care for. As such, previous experience working in this environment is desirable.
