Job description

At inspiring vet care, our people are at the heart of everything we do. As the UK’s number one vet care provider, we're trusted with the care of over 2 million animals, delivering our purpose of healthier animals and happier owners.

We are seeking a confident, team-orientated Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our team at Mount Road Vets on a full-time basis. Part-time applications will also be considered, providing the 40-hour weekly requirement can be covered.

Mount Road Vets is a well-established first opinion practice located just 4 miles from central Manchester. We have a loyal and growing client base, including clients who have been with the practice for many years, and we are proud to provide accessible, high-quality care to pets within our local community.

This role will involve some sole charge nursing work, so we are looking for an RVN who feels confident working independently and taking ownership of their nursing responsibilities. You won’t be on your own day-to-day, as you’ll be supported by a skilled and friendly VCA team, alongside the wider practice team.

This role would suit an RVN who enjoys a varied general nursing position and is confident working with a level of independence. You’ll be involved in nurse appointments, patient admissions and discharges, inpatient care, treatments, diagnostics, medication dispensing and maintaining accurate client and patient records.

Working Pattern

• 40 hours per week
• Monday to Friday 10:00am to 6:00pm
• No weekend work
• Part-time applications will be considered, providing the 40-hour weekly requirement can be covered across the team
