Hours: Full time (37 hours/week, 4-day week)
Salary: Up to £27,700 per annum depending on experience
The Role
We are looking for a Registered Veterinary Nurse to join a supportive and friendly team in Leicestershire. The role covers all aspects of veterinary nursing including theatre practice, ward nursing, nurse consults, laboratory work and schedule 3 procedures. Special interests are welcomed and CPD is actively encouraged, with current team members undertaking certificates in surgical nursing, diagnostic imaging and ECC. Weekend commitment is minimal, with a Saturday morning rota of 1 in 4 maximum (currently 1 in 7 depending on staffing levels).
About the Practice
This well-established, RCVS accredited and Cat Friendly accredited practice has modern, well-equipped premises, including two theatres, digital x-ray, dental x-ray and separate cat and kennel wards. You'll be part of a large team including 7 RVNs, 1 SVN, 1 ACA, 10 vets and a supportive reception team.
The Area
Situated in semi-rural Leicestershire, the practice offers the best of both worlds. Tranquil countryside surrounds the area, perfect for evening walks, while the bustling city of Leicester is only a short drive away with a wide range of restaurants, shops and activities. Excellent transport links make it easy to explore the wider region and beyond.
