Growth Lead

For uncompromising cat parents who want the best, KatKin goes hardcore for cat health. We make the UK’s only fresh cat food: 100% human-quality meat, gently cooked, and frozen for freshness.

Where the competition cuts corners, catfishes customers and puts profits over health, we put cat wellbeing first. No shortcuts. No secret recipes. We’re cutting the fluff, thinking fresh and channelling hardcore love into industry-wide change. So cats live long and cat parents can love hard without compromise.

If you want to join and grow an ambitious, mission-driven, high-growth startup that’s making a genuine difference to cats’ (and their people’s) lives, you’ll love working at KatKin.

We’re a small, entrepreneurial, creative team, focused on the mission to give all cats the food they truly deserve - 100% fresh human-grade meat.

We hire the best, so you’ll work with, learn from and challenge top D2C industry talent to accelerate customer acquisition.
