Riversbrook Vets are a friendly, diverse and progressive team, with a wealth of experience.

We have a lovely reception team and a supportive nursing team, who are happy to help in any way they can - they even enjoy a dental scale and polish and taking dental x-rays! We are incredibly proud that we have been able to build a strong and respectful team that enjoy coming to work.

The position would ideally be 40 hours per week, which includes a share of Saturdays (8am-2pm), although we are open to part time/job share applications. There are no OOH requirements as this is covered by our local Midnight Vet team.

Apart from working alongside our fantastic team, you get to enjoy the following amazing benefits:

• Competitive salary up to £60,000 DOE (pro rata)
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays (+ 1 additional day every year, up to 5 years), as well as the opportunity to sell/ buy up to 2 weeks holiday (pro rata)
• VDS and RCVS fees covered
• Generously encouraged and fully funded CPD – abundant opportunities within the business aided by internal and external development courses and programmes
• Cycle to work scheme and subsidised gym membership
• Enhanced Maternity, Paternity and Adoption pay
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Pension scheme – automatic enrolment and completely hassle free
• Access to First Aid for Mental Health and Wellbeing Champions across CVS and 300 trained CVS colleagues in this role
