Overview
We are looking for a friendly, enthusiastic and experienced Veterinary Receptionist to join our team at Lynton Vets from September 2025 on a fixed-term contract for maternity cover until July 2026.
If you have a passion for customer service, experience in a veterinary reception, and are keen to make a difference in a busy veterinary environment, we’d love to hear from you. In this role, you will be responsible for greeting and interacting with clients in a welcoming and professional manner, ensuring that every visit is a positive experience.

Who we are
We are a long-established, small animal veterinary group. As a progressive practice we recently relocated to our brand new, purpose-built practice in Woking, and continue to invest to refurbish and equip our other 2 practices to the same high standard. The practice maintains state of the art clinical equipment such as dental radiography, Virtual Veterinary ultrasound scanners, anaesthetic multiparameter and patient warming equipment. We also have a purpose-built grooming salon at our main site. We have a loyal client base and a gold standard reputation across the local community. We have great transport links to London and the beauty and history of Surrey on our doorstep ready to explore.
Join an exceptional team at Lynton Vets.
Our 6 Veterinary Surgeons are supported by a great team of 8 Registered Veterinary Nurses, 4 Student Veterinary Nurses, 4 ANAs and experienced Receptionists across the Group. We have a family-like culture in practice and have embedded a truly supportive and encouraging ethos amongst the team. Each practice has an essential SOS chocolate station, and we are never short of cake with some excellent bakers across the group! Mental and physical well-being of the team is paramount to us. Because our people matter, we recognise that our people are fundamental to the success of our business. Investing in our people, premises and processes is at the heart of what we do.
