Registered Veterinary Nurse

An independent, employee-owned vets are looking for an all-round, enthusiastic, confident nurse to join a team of 11 nurses, ACAs and SVNs in providing the highest quality care to their animals. This practice prides themselves on having excellent facilities to build on your clinical knowledge and keep most of their treatment in house. The role would be across three local sites including a full dental suite, laboratory and nurse clinics. As well as having a wide range of services on offer, this practice has a focus on behaviour and wellbeing, taking a holistic approach to animal welfare and ensuring the best care and attention is given. We are looking for a committed RVN who is focussed on providing the best care for their animals and interested in growing their skill set among an experienced and supportive team. For nurses who are particularly interested in behaviour and physio, this opportunity would be of particular interest, but an overall reliable and enthusiastic vet nurse would be ideal.

• Are an RVN (or about to qualify) who takes pride in high standards of patient care
• Like being trusted to use your clinical judgement and speak up for your patients
• Communicate clearly and kindly, with owners, vets and the rest of the team
• Stay steady when things get busy, and keep a sense of humour while you're at it
• Want to keep growing, whether that's a certificate, a new skill or a clinical area you'd love to own one day
