Registered Veterinary Nurse- Full Time- Mid-Sussex Veterinary Clinic – Wivelsfield Nr Haywards Heath, East Sussex

Due to the continuing growth of our Veterinary Clinic, we are looking for a Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our nursing team. Our nurses are caring, compassionate, hardworking, enthusiastic, and work to a high standard.

About Us:

The clinic has modern equipment including multiparameter monitors, laparoscopy, endoscopy, and a brand-new ultrasound machine.

We maintain a relaxed, very friendly, and supportive environment with further training supported and encouraged. Our team includes a Clinical Director, Head Nurse, 5 Vets, 5 RVNs, 1 SVN, 2 receptionists and a Practice Manager.

We have a fair rota which allows the nurses to use the skills which they trained for. Our nurses rotate equally between Anaesthetics, Theatre, Kennels/In- patient care and Consulting. Our vets value these skills, and this allows our vets the time to give our patients and their owners a high quality of care.

We regularly sit down for team meetings to allow our team members the opportunity to share their thoughts and ideas and discuss any changes as a team.

We work in a purpose-built building with air con! We believe in a good work life balance and ensure everyone gets a lunch break and plenty of refreshments throughout the day. We do love our cups of tea! We have a staff room where the team can take their PAID lunch breaks as well as plenty of space outside to go for a walk in the fresh air and watch the cows that live behind us!

We have a friendly loyal client base, many of which have been bringing their pets to us since we first opened!
