At inspiring vet care, our people are at the heart of everything we do.
As the UK’s number one vet care provider, we're trusted with the care of over 2 million animals, delivering our purpose of healthier animals and happier owners.
We are seeking an enthusiastic, team-orientated Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our team at Virginia Water Veterinary Clinic on a full-time basis.
We are a friendly, newly established small animal practice based in the beautiful surroundings of Virginia Water, Surrey. Conveniently located right by the train station, we offer excellent transport links to London, as well as easy access to the local woodland and surrounding countryside. Staff parking is also available.
Our brand-new practice is currently home to a small, close-knit team, including one Vet, a Head Nurse, RVN, Practice Director and two Receptionists, with exciting plans to expand the team as the practice continues to grow. We are well equipped with an on-site laboratory, X-ray and ultrasound, alongside visiting specialist surgeons who provide laparoscopic spays, orthopaedic procedures and ophthalmology services.
We pride ourselves on building strong relationships with our clients and patients, which has helped us develop an excellent local reputation and a loyal client base. As we grow, we are looking to introduce an Animal Nursing Assistant and offer SVN placement opportunities, making this an exciting time to join the team. We would particularly welcome an RVN with an interest in clinical coaching, or someone who already holds Clinical Coach training, to help support the development of future student nurses.
How You’ll Make a Difference
As a Registered Veterinary Nurse, you will be an integral member of the clinical team, delivering high-quality nursing care to patients while supporting excellent client experiences.
