With over 150 years of helping animals in Guernsey and more animals being helped each year than ever before the GSPCA are looking to add new team members to help ensure our 24/7 work.

The GSPCA has had to grow in recent years to meet the demands on our services and ensure the care and rescue of animals in need.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said, “We are very excited to announce some exciting new opportunities at the GSPCA, but there are only weeks left to apply.”

“We have been reviewing our structure and ways in which we work and our team has had to grow in recent years both voluntarily and staff with the increasing numbers of animals and demands on our services we have identified two new roles, those being a GSPCA Deputy Manager and also a Supervisor or Senior Animal Care Team Member role to help in a range of areas from training to support the 24/7 work of the Shelter.”

“The GSPCA Deputy Manager role is a brand new role to help support in the smooth running of the GSPCA and we are looking for a person with exceptional people skills, adaptable, kind, supportive, and with the modern-day skills needed to fill what is a very diverse role supporting the team and helping lead the GSPCA alongside myself.”

“I have been in management in animal welfare for over 25 years and every day is different with constant challenges, but every day you can be assured we help make a difference to animals and our community in a wide range of ways.”

“The Supervisor role is to help the current Supervisors in running the day-to-day care of the animals and departments, as well as supporting the growing team, assisting with training, and ensuring excellent standards and care along with the GSPCA Deputy Manager and myself.”

“We are also looking for other animal care and reception team members, and always keen to hear from those looking to volunteer.”

“We are also always looking for those wishing to sponsor our work and there is a huge range of ways in which to do this.”

“We have some departments that require specific help on weekends, especially the hedgehog and wildlife areas, the cattery, reception on Saturdays and help with maintenance and the animal ambulance.”
