The available position

We are looking for a permanent RVN with full time hours available. Shifts are Monday – Friday 9am – 6pm, with one hour lunch break unpaid. We are flexible with these hours if the candidate is wanting less than 40 hours per week.

The role is surgery/medical nursing with some nurse consultations. There are cleaning aspects to the role to ensure it is a clean practice environment.

Ideal candidate will be a UK RVN, but we will consider other qualified veterinary nurses if they have the intention of sitting their OSCEs to become registered.

Ideal candidate would be one-year qualified, paid work experience and this would have a salary of £30,000 for FTE. If you are newly qualified starting salary would be lower depending on experience. Depending on length of experience, greater than one year, we may be able to offer higher than £30,000.

You would be entitled to 20 days annual leave, plus bank holidays (pro rata) and CPD allowance.

Would be great if you were, but it is not essential, part of the weekend rota doing 1 Saturday a month which is 9am-1:30pm. This shift can be taken as extra pay or time in lieu.

About us

We are a small animal, independent practice in SW London. We are a hard-working and friendly team consisting of three vets and two RVNs (you would make it three RVNs), one SQP and three VCAs nurse/support staff. Fully equipped practice with-in house MiLab blood machines, IV fluid pumps, digital radiographs, dental radiographs, and ultrasound. We do see some exotics (rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, ferrets) but experience in this area is not essential.

Our usual day

One vet consults all day and the other does a mixture of consults and surgery. We have three to four procedures/surgeries booked each day. Two RVNs look after the surgery and medical patients, one support staff on reception and one support staff in the office answering phone calls/dealing with emails.
