Life at Harbour

Established in the early 1980s, Harbour Veterinary Group is a large, purpose-built small animal practice based within Portsmouth's Pompey Centre. We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional veterinary care through a combination of modern facilities, advanced equipment and an experienced, supportive team.

Our clients benefit from access to a wide range of referral services, including:

  • Cardiology
  • Keyhole surgery
  • Orthopaedic surgery
  • Soft tissue surgery
  • Ophthalmology

At Harbour, patient welfare is at the heart of everything we do. Our team is passionate about providing the highest standards of care, treatment and surgery while maintaining a friendly and welcoming environment for both colleagues and clients.

The Role

We're looking for a dedicated and enthusiastic Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our team. This is a varied role where no two days are the same, offering the opportunity to develop your skills across all aspects of nursing.

You Will

  • Deliver exceptional patient and client care every day.
  • Support patient outcomes across all areas of clinical practice.
  • Help maintain high clinical standards and ensure the practice remains in excellent condition.
  • Take advantage of the training and development opportunities available through both Harbour and CVS.
  • Contribute to a positive, supportive and collaborative team culture.
  • Build strong relationships with clients and colleagues through excellent communication skills.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer β€” it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet β€” that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
