The Practice:

Our clients' aim within the practice is to treat their patients as though they were their own animals and to treat clients in the way they would wish to be dealt with themselves. This philosophy should be carried through at all levels, in terms of demeanour, appearance, professionalism, and communication (between vets, clients, external providers such as laboratories and staff). You all have a part to play in ensuring the smooth running of the various aspects of the practice. All members of staff are expected to work to the highest of clinical standards. Support and training will be provided to ensure these standards of clinical excellence are attained.

This is a full-time permanent role where you will be working 37.5 hours per week on a rota system between 07:00 to 22:30, including 1:4 weekends and a share of Bank Holidays (on a rota).

This role will share the responsibility for creating and maintaining the highest standards of nursing care and professional performance. You will liaise with the Head Veterinary Nurse and Veterinary Surgeons to ensure the maintenance of ‘best’ veterinary practice and effective running of the practice.

The role will cover all aspects of the nursing role and responsibilities to ensure the smooth running of the practice at all times.

The Package:

In return for all your hard work and dedication, our client is offering a benefits package that includes:

• A discretionary Summer and Christmas bonus scheme in place for eligible staff.
