If you are looking for something better, not just different, we might be your people!

Our Practice
We are purpose built, with 3 consult rooms, a spacious theatre, separate dog and cat ward, a well-equipped isolation unit and a separate dental and x-ray room. We have the usual in-house laboratory and ultrasound and have access to endoscopy.

We are a team of 4 RVNs and one RVN/Practice Owner, and 1 Veterinary Care Assistant. We have an amazing team of 4 receptionists, and all support a team of 3 brilliant vets. We are 1 of 5 locally owned practices, so although you would make our onsite RVN team 5, we have a larger group of 31 RVNs, so there is always someone on hand to support any newer qualified individuals.

The Role
We are passionate about work/life balance, utilising RVNs to the best of their abilities and our practice ethos has resulted in a bonded client base that value our RVNs as much as we do.

The hours per week are flexible, as we understand your home and family are important, and this is why we are open to 20-40 hours/week: we will build your rota around a balance of the practice and your needs, and the majority of our team do not work more than 4 weekdays each week.

Our weekend rota is 1 in 4 Saturdays, with no Sundays. We decided to close on Sundays a few years ago, to provide our team with a dedicate day of rest and have no immediate plans to reopen Sundays.

Our OOH is covered by an external provider, so there are no OOH shifts.

In return we offer

• Up to £33,000 (FTE) DOE
• Support and growth in the areas you are interested in.
• CPD allowance of £560 (FTE) per year, with separate allowance for certification.
• RCVS registration paid
• An additional paid day off on your birthday
• An additional 1 week of holiday accrued, after 2 years of service
• Staff pet care discount, and immediate family discount
• Pets at Home and other third-party discounts

Do you want to work somewhere that puts the team first, genuinely cares about doing things well and makes space for proper client conversations, then we would love to hear from you. Drop me a message at melanie.graham@vets4pets.com, pop in for a cuppa or send me your CV if that is more your style.
