In order to do just that, we need a team of forward-thinking, driven people who love dogs as much as we do. And we need some pretty impressive kitchens to make it happen. While Rudie's Kitchen and Ace's Pantry in Doncaster remain the heart of our UK operations, we've recently taken a massive leap forward with Sam's Kitchen in Poland, going live in January this year. This expansion is a huge part of our story, allowing us to bring our gently cooked, human-quality meals to even more four-legged friends across Europe. We believe dogs deserve better, and we wouldn't serve food to them that we wouldn't be happy to eat ourselves. Butternut has come a long way since Kev & Dave (our co-founders) hand-delivered the first Butternut Box, and with our new international footprint, we are looking for brilliant people to join us for this next chapter. 🥳What's In It For You?🥳 Enjoy 257.5 hours of holiday per year (equivalent to 33 days holiday)* Plus an extra day for each year of service (up to 5 days).* 39 hours of pre-booked paws days to support good wellbeing and self-care.* (equivalent to 5 days) Enrollment into our EAP "Telus" offering free financial planning, counselling, mental health support and more Unlock a £500 annual budget for personal learning and development.
