Nutrition Specialist
Vicky Bassett
"I started with Burns in 2007 and I have worked in various areas of the company. Prior to joining the nutrition team, I was out on the road as a Field Sales Representative. This is helpful when speaking to new customers looking to move to Burns as I already know about the food they are currently feeding. I have been on the nutrition team for 4 years and I love helping people with their nutritional queries. Being office-based has also given me time to do several courses such as Canine Anatomy and Physiology.
You will often see me at shows, as I love getting to go to new places and enjoy meeting members of the public to chat about their pets and give nutrition advice. I also particularly enjoy holding training sessions and giving presentations about the Burns products to other members of the Burns team as well as rescue centres and Burns stockists.
I am a total bookworm so in my spare time I do like to catch up with a book, thrillers are a favourite. I asked my colleagues to describe me as a dog breed and they said Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen. They are lively, enthusiastic and curious. They also have a “good voice, freely used”!"
