Join Our Friendly Team at Hayling Island Vets for Pets
"It's a wonderful practice. Always so kind and gentle with the animals. They don't rush you in and out, really take their time to explain and talk about it. Clean and professional. Couldn't top it."
"I was absolutely thrilled with the fantastic care and kindness shown by the team. So reassuring."
Be Part of Our Exciting Future
As our practice continues to evolve, we are looking to welcome both a Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN) and a Head Veterinary Nurse (HVN) to join our talented team at Hayling Island Vets for Pets.
Whether you're an experienced Head Nurse seeking a new challenge, an ambitious RVN looking to step into leadership, or a newly qualified nurse ready to begin your career, we'd love to hear from you.
About Us
Our practice is locally and independently run, supported by a passionate and friendly team committed to delivering exceptional patient care and outstanding client service within the local community.
At our practice, our particular interests are ophthalmology, internal medicine, dentistry, and surgery (soft tissue and orthopaedic).
We are committed to investing into our practice and bringing the very best care to our patients. We have just purchased a new ultrasound machine with an Echo Doppler and are in the process of purchasing a dental X-ray machine.
We're proud of the collaborative culture we've created, where every colleague is encouraged to share ideas, develop their skills, and play an active role in shaping the future of the practice.
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.
