Offer description

Are you a passionate Registered Veterinary Nurse looking to take the next step in your career in a supportive, progressive environment? Myerscough Veterinary Group is seeking a dedicated RVN to join our talented team.

We are proud to offer more than just a job — we provide a workplace where your growth, wellbeing, and work-life balance truly matter.


Shape your Career

The RVN role at Myerscough offers a fantastic opportunity to develop your clinical skills within a busy, rewarding, and supportive environment. You will rotate through our network of 11 local practices, helping maintain your general nursing skills, while also spending time each week in First Opinion Prep and Theatre to build surgical experience. We are passionate about helping our nurses grow, and this role provides a variety of interesting and professionally fulfilling day-to-day experiences.


Leading Care, Compassion, and Community

Located in the beautiful Ribble Valley, our Clayton Le Dale hospital is a Tier 3 RCVS-accredited training practice. Facilities include four consulting rooms and multiple operating theatres with state-of-the-art technology such as CT, endoscopy, laparoscopy, digital radiography, ultrasound, and dental radiography. We provide routine and advanced care, including primary services and a specialist-led referral service in surgery, internal medicine, anaesthesia, orthopaedics, and emergency and critical care.

Our commitment is to deliver the highest standard of patient care and client service. We adhere to structured working hours, ensure staff are not contacted during their time off, and schedule consultations to finish before your end-of-day, allowing time for admin and follow-ups.


Our Team: Expertise Meets Passion

Across our 10 sites, we have a 17-vet team, supported by talented RVNs, SVNs, ACAs, and client care advisors. Enthusiasm, teamwork, and clinical excellence are core to our practice. We also have a dedicated nurse team running nurse-led services including weight management, new pet consultations, and wellness clinics, from Monday to Saturday.


Working Hours

This full-time role offers 38 hours across four days per week, with one in four Saturdays (8:00 am - 3:30 pm). No out-of-hours work is required, as we collaborate with VetsNow to ensure evenings and weekends are free. We offer flexible rotas to accommodate personal commitments such as school runs and holidays.


What We're Looking For

We seek a qualified Registered Veterinary Nurse with strong anaesthesia skills and a good understanding of nurse clinics. Excellent organizational skills and a genuine enthusiasm for patient care are essential. Experience or interest in specialist clinics, preventative healthcare, nutrition, or stock management is a bonus. A driving license is beneficial for occasional site travel.

Most importantly, we want someone with a positive attitude, eagerness to learn, and a passion for teamwork.
