Registered Veterinary Nurse

·
Full time
Location: Portsmouth
· ·
Salary up to £27,000 FTE and a career on the coast! We're proud of our low colleague turnover with several colleagues having been with us for over 11 years! Portsmouth Vets for Pets have an unmissable opportunity for a talented RVN to join our friendly team in our well-established and busy practice.

About us Our practice is independently run, by Practice Owner and vet Justyn and supported by a fantastic team of 5 Vets, 3 Qualified Nurses and 2 Student Nurse, as well as a fantastic non-clinical team and Practice Manager, all committed to delivering an outstanding level of service in the heart of our community.

The practice is purpose built to industry leading standards and we've recently invested in a brand-new ultrasound machine and direct plate radiography system as well as a K-laser, with plans to extend the practice in the not-too-distant future!

The role No two days are the same and you'll get to use your full range of skills from claw clips to assisting with orthopaedic surgery, to nurse clinics and creating bonds with your clients. We have a dedicated non-clinical team, so our nurses don't have any reception duties and as a nurse training practice there's also the opportunity to become a clinical coach, if that's where your strengths lie.

We really try to support all members of our team and offer a day off each week, paid overtime, protected admin time and a supportive environment. Although busy with a varied caseload we try to work at a steady pace with a well-managed diary to ensure we stay organised and finish on time as much as possible.

This is a full-time role, working 8:30am - 7:00pm 3 days a week and 1 in 4 Saturdays 9:00am - 12:00pm with no out of hours. We will consider more flexible hours though so please still get in touch if you'd like to find out more.

About you You will be a dynamic and proactive nurse with solid all-round skills in delivering excellent patient and client care. You will also be a strong team player and have good communication skills. Our nursing team already excel in their own areas of interest, but we are always looking at how we can improve our clinical standards even more so If you are keen to develop within your own area of interest, we would offer full support for further study.
