Hull Vets for Pets is a locally owned practice and we are now looking for an experienced Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our friendly team.
About us
Our surgery is purpose built complete with high quality facilities and equipment allowing excellent clinical care to be achieved. You’ll be joining a team of 24 which hold various levels of experience and interests but remain a close-knit team with a shared commitment to supporting each other’s well-being.
We are a standalone practice based on County Road South in Hull, with access to parking, a bus stop and local amenities nearby. You can find out more about our practice and team here.
About the role
This is a full-time role, 40 hours per week, which will be spread over 4 – 5 days Monday-Friday, and 1 in 4 Saturday mornings to keep it fair for everyone and ensure you get that well earned and needed downtime.
By joining us you will have the opportunity to use your nursing skills to their full potential by admitting and discharging patients, monitoring anaesthetics, monitoring recovery and nursing care of in-patients, running nurse clinics, taking radiographs and assisting with surgery and diagnosis tests.
What we’re looking for
Our nurses are veterinary professionals and as such we ensure that they are able to fulfil their clinical potential. You will perform an integral clinical role in caring for our patients and will need to have great communication and organisation skills and take pride in working to a high standard. The key to your success will be your ability to embrace all aspects of the Veterinary Nurse role, delivering excellent patient and client care.
Benefits
As well as a competitive salary, commensurate with experience, we offer all the benefits you would expect from a major employer (pension, healthcare, paid memberships etc.) plus we are happy to support pursuing areas of clinical interest in more depth including attaining further qualifications to both enhance your career and our practice’s clinical standards. Our Reward Hub also offers access to exclusive lifestyle and shopping discounts (up to 20% off at Pets at Home).
We can offer a friendly, inclusive work environment with a hard-working team who are dedicated to providing outstanding pet healthcare and fantastic, caring customer service. To find out more, please contact NorthVet@vets4pets.com or click apply.
