We have exiting changes happening in the coming months and are looking for the right Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our passionate and dedicated team. Is that you?
Our practice
We are purpose built, with three consult rooms, a spacious theatre, separate dog and cat ward, a well-equipped isolation unit and a separate dental and x-ray room. We have the usual in-house laboratory and ultrasound as well as access to endoscopy.
We are a team of 3 RVNs, 1 RVN/Practice Manager and 1 Veterinary Care Assistant. We have an amazing team of 4 receptionists, and all support a team of 3 brilliant Vets.
We are one of 5 locally owned practices, so although the onsite RVN team is soon to be 5, we have a larger group of 31 RVNs; there is always someone on hand to support any newer qualified individuals.
The role
We are passionate about work/life balance, utilising RVNs to the best of their abilities and our practice ethos has resulted in a bonded client base that value our RVNs as much as we do.
The hours per week are flexible, as we understand your home and family are important, and this is why we are open to full or part time hours; most of our team do not work more than 4 weekdays, each week.
Our RVN’s currently work 1 in 4 Saturdays with no Sundays. We decided to close on Sundays a few years ago to provide our team with a dedicate day of rest and have no immediate plans to reopen Sundays.
Our OOH is covered by an external provider, so there are no OOH shifts.
In return we offer
- Up to £30,000 (FTE) DOE
- Career development opportunities
- CPD allowance of £560 (FTE) per year, with separate allowance for certification.
- RCVS registration paid
- An additional paid day off on your birthday
- An additional 1 week of holiday accrued, after 2 years of service
- Staff pet care discount, and immediate family discount
- Pets at Home and other third-party discounts
Are you
- Passionate about patient care and client education?
- Ready to utilise your RVN’s skills in the way you want?
- Able to work as part of a dedicate team to maintain our high standards?
- Ready to be part of a team that genuinely cares about you and your future?
