A bit about us
At Butternut, the mission is to deliver health and happiness to dogs and their humans all over the world.

In order to do just that, they need a team of forward-thinking, driven people who love dogs as much as they do.

And they need quite a big kitchen too. Which is precisely why they have built one.

Located in Doncaster, Rudie's Kitchen will be the place where all the magic happens, so to speak.

It's where the tasty Butternut meals and treats will be gently cooked, using human-quality ingredients because, the way they see it, they wouldn't serve food to dogs that they wouldn't be happy to eat themselves.

At Butternut, they believe dogs deserve better, and if that's something you think too, we want to hear from you.

Butternut has come a long way since Kev & Dave (co-founders) hand-delivered the first Butternut Box, and they are now looking for brilliant people to join the team for this next part of the story.

We are pleased to say, this is a full-time permanent contract, you will be working a rolling average of 41 hours per week working on a shift rotation with a mixture of days / nights and some weekend working.

The working shifts days consisting of 7am to 7pm and nights consisting of 7pm-7am.

Such as:

4 on, 4 off = 2 day, 2 nights
5 on, 5 off = 3 days, 2 nights
5 on, 5 off = 2 days, 3 nights
