Overview

Are you a Registered Veterinary Nurse looking for the next exciting step in your career? Do you seek a role that enables you to utilise your nursing skills and make a difference? We are looking for Registered Veterinary Nurses to join our new team at our 24/7 hospital in Warrington.

About Animal Trust

Animal Trust stands out from other veterinary services. We are a unique Community Interest Company, being the only veterinary CIC in the UK to date. Our primary focus isn’t solely on maximising profits; instead, we are dedicated to delivering on our mission and ensuring enough profit to sustain our business in the long term.

Our vision is clear: No pet should go untreated or face euthanasia when there is a viable treatment option. We firmly believe that pet ownership should be accessible to all, acknowledging that individuals earning the Real Living Wage may encounter challenges in affording veterinary care when their pet falls ill. In response, we aim to assist. Our free consultations and transparent pricing enable our vets and nurses to break down the barriers that stand in the way of pets receiving the treatment they need.
