The Old Golf House is a forward-thinking, progressive practice committed to excellence, support, friendliness, loyalty, and honesty. Our workplace culture has been recognized by the BVA with the wellbeing awards (large practice). We encourage our team members to pursue their interests; for instance, we currently have nurses with anaesthesia certificates supporting our six vets with diverse interests from exotics to internal medicine. Working across two first opinion small animal sites in the beautiful Norfolk/Suffolk countryside, you will have the autonomy to make a meaningful impact on your team and the client experience.

We seek a vet who brings energy, enthusiasm, confidence, and professionalism, and who can share these qualities with the team and clients. A genuine interest in engaging in QI projects and providing outstanding animal care with high service standards is essential.

This position is available up to full-time, including a 1:4 share of the Saturday rota, with no OOH requirements. Please discuss flexible working options that suit you!

This role offers ample opportunities for progression and fulfillment, with comprehensive clinical management training fully funded. You will be supported by an excellent team, including two experienced head nurses and a practice director, all dedicated to fostering a supportive environment focused on wellbeing, support, and career development. We are part of a large, friendly regional network with regular visits from cardiology and orthopaedics certificate holders.

Hannah (RVN): "It's a really lovely, supportive practice where I'm proud to be part of the nursing team. We are always open to new ideas and work across teams to make improvements. We also enjoy quiz nights, Sunday brunches, and mindfulness lunches together."

• Competitive salary up to £60,000 DOE (pro rata)
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, with an additional day each year up to 5 years, and the option to buy/sell up to 4 weeks holiday (pro rata)
