Careers

We have 12 stores, a warehouse, a broth kitchen and a packing facility, so we are always keen to hear from people who love what we do and want to work for us, too!

OUR VALUES

At Raw Essentials, our five core values underpin everything we do:

  • We are friendly and caring, no matter the circumstance
  • We are curious and like to find out as much as we can about your pet
  • We are knowledgable and know our stuff on every level
  • We are responsive and honest to our customers, their pets, and our team members
  • We are essential and can prove we know what is relevant for the optimum health of pets

JOIN THE PACK

We're always on the hunt for people who share our values and share our belief that a natural, species-appropriate diet for cats and dogs is essential for optimum health. You don't need to be a raw feeding expert to join our team, as we fully train everyone in what we do. However, a great attitude and shared values is important.
