We’re looking for a passionate and proactive Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our friendly and supportive team on a part-time, 12-month maternity cover basis. This is a great opportunity to be part of a forward-thinking, well-equipped practice that puts people, patients and high standards of care first.

What’s the role?

You’ll be working 15 hours per week, based predominantly at our London Road site in King’s Lynn. With no weekends or out-of-hours, this role is ideal if you’re seeking better balance without compromising on variety or clinical development. You’ll be involved in all aspects of nursing, with real scope to use your skills and training-supported by a strong patient care assistant team who help us protect our nurses’ time for what they do best.

We have species-specific kennel areas, a separate dental suite, prep room, sterile theatre and more-ensuring we can deliver the highest standards of care.

What we’re looking for

You’ll be a qualified RVN who values teamwork, clinical standards, and kindness. Whether you’re returning to practice, seeking a more flexible role, or just want to work somewhere you’re truly supported-this is an opportunity to feel appreciated and make a difference every day.
