Are you an enthusiastic experienced Veterinary Nurse ready to join a new team? We are looking for an RVN (a student currently studying veterinary nursing at college MAY be considered) to deliver exceptional care at Chine House Veterinary Hospital.

This is a friendly RCVS accredited hospital who run their own out of hours service. They work to a very high standard of patient care with separate cat, dog and exotic wards, in house laboratory and digital x-ray. They have a superb, spacious purpose-built hospital with 6 operating theatres and multiple consulting rooms.

The team is made up of 12 small animal vets who are supported by 18 nurses, students and auxiliaries. They also have a separate Equine hospital on site.

The successful candidate will be enthusiastic and show initiative within the role. They have an Exotics Specialist Vet so an interest in Exotics would be an advantage but not a necessity as full training in handling and nursing exotics will be provided. This is a fast-paced environment with a focus on developing your nursing skills – they support CPD and encourage certificates.

Their team of Auxiliaries look after all prep and cleaning of theatres, theatre kits, laundry etc plus a team of 16 receptionists so this role is purely nursing. Shifts will be between 8am and 8pm over a 37.5 hour working week which includes on-call and OOH weekends.

They offer a competitive salary depending on experience up to £30,000 per annum.

Other benefits include:

  • Healthshield – wide ranging contributions for health and wellbeing treatments from dentistry to sports massage
  • 6 weeks holiday
  • CPD Allowance
  • RCVS membership
  • VDS Cover
  • Enhanced maternity, paternity, adoption, shared parental leave and surrogacy pay
  • Generous Discounted Veterinary Fees
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Buy and sell Holiday scheme
  • Life Insurance at 1x annual salary
  • 1 day paid volunteering leave
  • Private Medical Insurance available through Group Payroll
