What matters is your ability to lead change, improve services, and your enthusiasm for making a positive impact. This role is a great opportunity for someone who loves animals and is looking for something more meaningful in your next role.

At Battersea, we value expertise. We recognise each candidate that applies to us will have a range of expertise they can offer us, so we want to hear about this in your own words.
