Registered Veterinary Nurse Opportunity at Grantham Vets for Pets
An exciting opportunity has arisen at our small animal practice in Grantham Vets for Pets for an enthusiastic Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our friendly and welcoming team.
We’re proud of our standalone practice which holds RCVS GP status as part of the Practice Standards Scheme, locally owned by Veterinary Surgeon, Lee Middleton. We have also been at the forefront of colleague wellness and previously received a ‘Highly Commended’ in the Veterinary Wellbeing awards. We were also shortlisted for the 2026 “Best UK Vets” award and our practice owner Lee won the “New Practice Owner of the Year” Award at the Vets for Pets annual conference.
As a practice we are nurse led as much as possible. This includes:
- Admitting & discharging patients
- Monitoring anaesthetics with access to multi-parameter monitoring
- Performing radiography including dental radiography
- Dental scaling
- Performing local anaesthetic blocks
- Inpatient care of hospitalised patients
- Nurse clinics, currently 2nd vaccinations, monoclonal antibody injections, nail clips etc but we are looking to develop this area to include senior and adolescent clinics
You will be joining a team of 3 RVN’s and a VCA and we are also a training practice and often have university nursing students on placement with us. We have invested heavily in the practice in recent years and are proud of our equipment and approach to patient care. We are also currently working towards achieving our cat friendly status.

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

This is a Full Time role working 40 hours per week with 1 in 3 Saturday morning. We are happy to consider part time hours, so if you have any specific requirements please do let us know!
