Veterinary Surgeon – Corby Vets4Pets - a practice that truly values its people
Who We Are
Nancy, the Practice Owner, celebrates an incredible 11 years with the practice this year and took on the exciting role of owner in July 2024. This is a thrilling time to join the team, as Nancy is not only growing the practice but also leading it through an upcoming relaunch and rebrand. With plans to extend in the future, the practice is entering a dynamic new chapter, making it the perfect opportunity to become part of its journey and contribute to its continued success.
The practice is set in a town within the beautiful Northamptonshire County. Just a 5-minute drive and you’re in the rural countryside. We have lots of amazing country parks dotted throughout the town and area. Perfect for clearing your head, opening your lungs, and walking 4-legged friends too. We are a fast-paced and busy surgery, however, with our strong dedicated team, there isn’t anything we haven't and cannot accomplish!
You will be joining an inclusive and supportive team who are passionate about being at the heart of the local community. The team consists of 2 Vets, 4 qualified RVNs including Practice Owner Nancy, SVN who is due to qualify, VCA, and 4 Receptionists.
Corby Vets4Pets pride themselves on fostering a family-like atmosphere with a longstanding team that embodies loyalty and commitment. Here, management listens without judgement, offers guidance to help you achieve your goals, and supports you in reaching your full potential. With no room for toxicity, we’ve created a welcoming, collaborative environment where every team member is empowered to succeed and grow.
