About Us:

We are an RCVS PSS (and have been for the past 14 years), an RVN training practice, a Silver Cat Friendly practice and we are currently working towards the Silver Investors in Environment award.

Our nurses are veterinary professionals and as such we ensure that they are able to fulfil their clinical potential. Our head nurse is a clinical coach who is supporting our employed SVN through their studies. Continuing your learning is just as important to us, and we offer a great CPD allowance to our Nurses. Our collective strength is in anaesthesia, and we are keen to maintain this.

You will join a very stable team which is currently made up of 3 FT vets, 3 FT RVNs, 1 SVN, Practice Manager and 3 receptionists, which we find is the perfect balance for ensuring you always get breaks and time in the diary to catch up on admin. Our practice provides excellent facilities giving you access to all the equipment and space you need to care for your patients. Our caseload is varied and as such we also have a visiting Orthopaedic Specialist, so there is ample of learning opportunities.

We are offering a salary of up to £33,500 (DOE). We can consider both full or part time hours, which includes a 1 in 3 full day Saturday rota. No Sundays or OOHs!
We also offer fantastic benefits that include:

• An extra day off for your birthday
