Job Description: An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Registered Veterinary Nurse to join the team at an independent small animal group in West Sussex.
With four branch clinics and two state-of-the-art hospitals you'll be involved in both first opinion and referral care, including medical and surgical cases, advanced diagnostic imaging and rehabilitation with the opportunity to grow and master your areas of special interest.
The successful candidate will be an experienced Registered Veterinary Nurse (RCVS) with a minimum of 2/3 year experience and who has a valid driving licence.
This is a full time role, working a 4 day week (shift times 7.30am - 6.30pm, 8am - 7pm, 8.30am - 7.30pm), with a one hour lunch break.
There is an equal rota for daytime in-patient care and help with emergencies over weekends and bank holidays. 2 days off in lieu of any weekend worked. No out of hours, except to act as 'last resort' backup to the dedicated emergency team on a rota (this is very rarely used).
Included in the package on offer:
A salary of £26,000 - £33,000 depending on experience (plus extra travel allowance)
Funded CPD (certificate funding available)
Standard pension benefit
40% staff discount for your own pets
Enhanced parental leave (6 months paid at 90%)
Enhanced sickness benefit (2 weeks at 100%)
7 weeks holiday, including bank holidays
Occupational health resources, including mental health support
