Welfare Lead

Welfare Lead

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 we need a team of forwardthinking driven people who love dogs as much as we do. And they need quite a big kitchen too. Which is precisely why we have built one.

Located in Worksop Rudies Kitchen & Aces Pantry will be the place where all the magic happens so to speak. Its where the tasty Butternut meals and treats will be gently cooked using humanquality ingredients because the way we see it we wouldnt serve food to dogs that we wouldnt be happy to eat themselves. At Butternut we believe dogs deserve better and if thats something you think too we want to hear from you.

Butternut has come a long way since Kev & Dave (cofounders) handdelivered the first Butternut Box and we are now looking for brilliant people to join the team for this next part of the story.
