Calling all RVNs – Your next adventure starts here!
Are you an RVN looking for an exciting new challenge in an expanding practice where your hard-earned skills and passions will truly shine? Look no further! We’ve got a great opportunity for a qualified nurse to join our Milton Keynes team, where you’ll be delivering outstanding care to the highest standard.
Why join us?
At Milton Keynes Vets for Pets, people come first – both our clients and our incredible team of 45+ colleagues. We’ve created an inclusive, welcoming environment where emotional wellbeing is just as important as delivering exceptional pet care.
- We regularly celebrate individual and team achievements with awards, rewards, and plenty of fun social events throughout the year.
- Plus, we’re all about helping you grow – from regular practice and clinical meetings to encouraging you to pursue your specific areas of interest.
- Our people are a priority, and this is reflected in our inclusive and welcoming team (11 vets and 18 RVNs/VCA & SVNs), where the focus is as much on our own emotional wellbeing, as in putting pets first.
- Our progressive attitude keeps us fresh and current, for example we are proud to be one of only a handful of practices in the UK to be awarded the Green Investors in the Environment award.
We have had a brand-new refresh in the last 6 months with our new space including large, dedicated dog and cat wards, a state-of-the-art dentistry suite, and a specialized diagnostic imaging room. Most excitingly, we have a cutting-edge CT and control room featuring the brand-new IMVi GE Revolution ACT system. This expansion marks a significant step forward, and we’re thrilled to share this journey with our team and clients. It’s truly a fantastic time to join us and we encourage our nursing team to get fully involved in all our scanning!
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Oh, and in case you’re wondering, we already have some fantastic tools to help you deliver amazing care: K-laser, HT Vista, digital Xray, dental X-ray, syringe driver, flexible and rigid endoscopy, laparoscopy, nerve stimulator, Logic R8 ultrasound, and more. Our spacious setup includes six consult rooms, two theatres, prep rooms, and a dedicated colleague room.
To support the significant amount of enhanced clinical work, surgery and orthopaedics we do in house, we have invested in a dedicated hydrotherapy space to support in our patients recovery and rehab.
About You And The Role
We are in a fortunate position where we can offer you either full or part time hours. Whatever you’re looking for, we invite you to come and talk to us about what works for you. A full time position would be 40 hours per week, (4 days and 1 in 4 weekends). If you don’t fit that mould, we will try our best to accommodate what you’re looking for. Our location is super convenient, with a central spot in a modern retail park, free onsite parking, and a nearby train station. Prefer to cycle? We’ve got a cycle-to-work scheme too!
Whether you’re a newly qualified RVN looking for your first role in a practice you can really learn and thrive, or an experienced nurse ready to take your career to the next level, we’d love to hear from you! We’ll support you every step of the way and we actively encourage our RVNs to take on Schedule 3 responsibilities such as dental work, Xray’s, and lab, as well as providing a generous CPD allowance for your personal development. If there is a certain area of nursing you have a particular passion for, we are more than happy to see how we can support you with this too! As a training practice, we are always happy to work with RVNs who are interested in becoming/are existing clinical coaches.
