Description
Registered Veterinary Nurse
• Negotiable salary on offer + amazing benefits
• A fantastic opportunity has arisen to join a friendly and supportive team at a well-established, independent small animal practice in South West London.
• Benefit from a varied caseload including exotics with full in-house equipment to support all surgical procedures.
About the Role
• Hours: Full-time, Monday - Friday, 9am to 6pm with a 1-hour unpaid lunch break (flexibility available for fewer hours if required).
• Duties: A mix of surgical and medical nursing with nurse consultations and some cleaning responsibilities to maintain a high standard of practice hygiene.
• Weekends: Participation in the weekend rota (1 Saturday per month, 9am-1:30pm) is optional and can be taken as extra pay or time in lieu.
Ideal Candidate
• Qualified RVN: Preference for a UK-registered RVN; however, other qualified veterinary nurses intending to sit their OSCEs will be considered.
• Experience: Ideally 1+ year post-qualification. Newly qualified candidates are welcome to apply, and salaries will reflect experience.
About the Practice
• A friendly and close-knit team including 3 vets, 2 RVNs (you'll be the third), 1 SQP, and 3 VCAs.
• Fully equipped practice featuring in-house MiLab blood machines, IV fluid pumps, digital radiography (including dental), and ultrasound.
• Opportunity to work with small exotics (rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, ferrets), although experience in this area is not essential.
Your Typical Day
• One vet consults throughout the day, while another manages a mix of consultations and surgeries.
• Three to four procedures/surgeries are scheduled each day.
• The nursing team focuses on the care of surgical and medical patients, while reception and office support staff handle client communications.
This is an excellent opportunity to join an independent practice where you can thrive as part of a supportive, hard-working team dedicated to exceptional patient care.
