The Opportunity

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced RVN to take ownership of their nursing role within a busy first-opinion small-animal practice. You’ll run your own nurse clinics every day alongside a varied clinical role, working closely with our vets and experienced nursing team across two branches just 3.5 miles apart. With a large and loyal client base, there’s plenty of opportunity to build strong client relationships, develop your clinical skills and pursue the areas of nursing that interest you most.

Benefits

•

33 days’ annual leave, including bank holidays, plus an additional day for every 2 years of service.

•

Your birthday off – paid!

•

£1,000 annual CPD allowance + 3 paid CPD days to support your professional development.

  • Six-monthly reviews, giving you regular opportunities to discuss your development, performance and remuneration.
  • A supportive independent practice environment where your skills, experience and contribution are genuinely valued.

The Rota

  • Full-time role with

no compulsory weekend rota.

  • Optional

3-hour Saturday morning shift for those who would like additional weekend work.

  • Saturday shifts include your own nurse consultations alongside supporting the vet.
  • Saturday hours are paid as overtime or can be taken as paid time off in lieu.

Career Development

  • Run your own nurse clinics and develop your consultation and client communication skills.
  • Build on your existing clinical experience and develop areas of nursing that interest you.
  • Work alongside experienced vets who are keen to support and develop talent within the team.
  • Access dedicated CPD time and funding to keep building your knowledge and confidence.
  • Support is available for further qualifications and certificates in areas that complement your interests and the practice.
  • Take on additional responsibility and progress your career within the practice.

What We’re Looking For

  • A

Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN) with ideally 2+ years’ experience — although we’ll consider less experience for the right person.

  • Someone confident running their own nurse consultations and building strong client relationships.
  • A passionate nurse who takes pride in delivering excellent patient and client care.
  • A team player who enjoys working collaboratively with experienced vets and nurses.
  • Someone enthusiastic about learning, developing and expanding their clinical skills.
  • A proactive, caring RVN who wants

more ownership of their nursing role and the opportunity to make a real impact.
