Are you a confident, enthusiastic RVN looking for a role where your skills are valued and your ideas supported? At Rhodes Vets we're proud of our welcoming, close-knit team and we're looking for another passionate nurse to join us. Whether you're seeking full-time or part-time hours, we'd love to hear from you.
Why join us?
No out-of-hours - enjoy your evenings and weekends
Up to £31,000 DOE (FTE) plus paid Saturday mornings (1 in 4)
Flexibility - full or part-time considered
Dedicated nurse consult room to run your own clinics
Opportunity to develop and pursue your own special interests - we'll support you all the way
About The Role
This is a varied nursing role where you'll be hands-on in all areas of practice life.

You'll mainly be based at our spacious Kingsthorpe practice, a beautiful period building with a dedicated dental suite, large theatre, three consult rooms (including one just for nurses), and separate cat and dog areas.
