Are you able to add value to the team beyond your clinical skills and help those around you to have a good day and get better at what they do? Do you want to work somewhere where you are supported, valued & listened to by the management team?

Benefits include: Pension, paid annual holiday allowance, sick pay, paid RCVS registration and VDS fees, a generous CPD allowance, as well as cost price veterinary treatment for your own pets.
The role
This is a varied role where you will undertake all general first opinion nursing duties. These include consultations, inpatient care, nurse clinics, running lab tests and assisting the vets in theatre and x-ray. You’ll have good time management skills and the ability to prioritise and get work done each day.
What we can offer
A friendly working environment where you can make a real difference and are encouraged to develop special interests. Support and guidance from senior vets at all times. Continuous access to managers to put forward suggestions, discuss concerns, chat with, laugh with and cry with. Regular all-staff and departmental meetings and annual reviews. A good work-life balance and time to sit down and eat your lunch and unexpected emergencies aside, leave on time too!
About you
You’ll be an experienced Registered Veterinary Nurse who can work with and help to advance our standards of care to improve patient outcomes and client consistency. You’ll enjoy working with the public and be confident in yourself and not embarrassed to discuss money, as although it isn’t our priority, it is a necessary conversation. We are looking for someone who ‘gets’ what we are trying to achieve and can fit our team culture and values because team harmony is very important to us. We want you to be able to enjoy a summer BBQ with us, go for a dog walk or party with us at Christmas.
We need someone who can work effectively with colleagues; someone who builds trusting relationships with ease; someone who can help clients understand what the right thing to do is by communicating clearly and simply; and someone who likes to learn and help others grow too. Equally, we want you to be able to accept that you will make mistakes and that’s okay, as long as you are honest and reflect and learn from them. Ultimately, the owner and management team here care deeply about our staff and helping them to achieve their career ambitions.

Working at the Practice
We have a loyal team of friendly vets, nurses and receptionists who have all been drawn into the profession by their love for animals.
We are proud to have a very low staff turnover, with many team members having worked for the practice for between 10 and 20 years and some in excess of 25 years!
The practice has a family feel and the welfare and best interests of the pets we treat is always our primary focus.
