Job description

Medivet Metheringham is a friendly, community-focused village practice, proudly Partner-Led by Dora, and we’re excited to be growing. As our client base continues to expand, we’re now looking to welcome a Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our close-knit team. This role has been created to provide additional nursing support and to work closely alongside our experienced Head Veterinary Nurse, playing an important part in the day-to-day running of the practice and the care we provide to our local community.

This position is ideally full-time, working 40 hours per week and 1 in 4 Saturdays, although we are happy to consider part-time for the right candidate.

You’ll be responsible for a wide range of general nursing duties and will have the opportunity to build strong relationships with both clients and patients in a village setting.

You’ll be working closely alongside our Head Veterinary Nurse, with occasional periods of sole charge due to the size of the team. While we’re committed to supporting and developing our nurses, we want to be open that we’re currently unable to offer Schedule 3 procedures at this time.

In return, we offer a genuinely supportive, close-knit working environment and a real opportunity to be part of a developing practice where your contribution will truly matter.

Your career means more than a rota and a job title, that’s why we offer:

Health and wellbeing

• Health Cash Plan from day one
• 24/7 counselling and wellbeing support
• Life Assurance 3 x salary

Annual leave

• 5 weeks’ annual leave plus Bank Holidays, rising with length of service
• Extra ‘Day for You’, a paid day off just for you

Learning and development

• £750 CPD allowance plus 2 days’ paid leave per year
• Access to Clinical Communities, internal CPD and our 24-hour hospitals
• Funded certificates and internal career pathways

Additional support

• RCVS and VDS fees paid
• Cycle to Work
• Season Ticket loans
• Discounts on Medivet products and services

About you

You’re a RCVS registered Veterinary Nurse with a passion for delivering exceptional patient and client care. You’re a team player who wants to make a real difference in a practice that values and supports you.

What you’ll be doing

Typically, in this role, you’ll:

• Deliver exceptional care to patients, carrying out nurse led appointments and schedule 3 activities, supporting consults, surgeries and procedures, complying with all regulatory, practice and operational standards
• Deliver patient monitoring and care, and manage admissions and discharges
• Deliver exceptional care to your clients
• Work collaboratively within a supportive team
